FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the leather is durable and water-resistant, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in deep water.
How should I clean the leather?
Use a brush to remove surface dust, then apply a leather cleaner with a soft cloth. Follow up with a conditioner to keep the leather supple.
Does the shoe run true to size?
The Authentic 3-Eye Lug generally runs true to standard sizing, but please consider that the leather will stretch slightly over time.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, the 360-degree lacing system uses standard leather laces that can be replaced if they become worn.
What is the benefit of the lug sole?
The lug sole provides significantly more traction and shock absorption than the traditional, flatter boat shoe soles.
Troubleshooting
The leather feels too stiff after first wear
This is normal for high-quality, handsewn leather. Use a leather conditioner to soften the fibers and wear them for short durations until they break in.
Difficulty getting a tight fit
Ensure the 360-degree lacing system is pulled evenly through all eyelets to distribute tension across the entire midfoot.
Outsole collecting debris
Use a stiff-bristle brush to knock out any gravel or dirt trapped within the deep grooves of the rubber lug sole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes maintain their quality, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear the shoes for short periods at home initially to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a leather cleaner specifically formulated for oil-tanned or premium leathers.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to maintain moisture levels in the material and prevent stiffening.
- Compatibility: Best worn with thick cotton or wool-blend socks during the break-in phase; once supple, they are frequently worn with low-profile socks or barefoot in warmer climates.
