FAQs
How do I break in these boots?
Wear the boots for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Walking on different surfaces can also help the boots mold to your feet.
What is the purpose of the anti-fatigue footbed?
The anti-fatigue footbed is designed with geometric cones that provide support and absorb shock, reducing the impact on your feet and legs during long days.
Are these boots suitable for heavy-duty work?
Yes, their durable construction, waterproof features, and lug sole make them suitable for many types of outdoor work environments.
Can I machine wash these boots?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, insulation, and waterproof membranes. Hand clean according to the care instructions.
What type of socks are best with these boots?
For maximum comfort and warmth, especially in cold weather, opt for wool or synthetic blend socks designed for outdoor activities.
How often should I re-apply waterproofing spray?
The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions. Re-apply when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface, typically every few months of regular wear.
Troubleshooting
Boots are not fully waterproof.
Ensure all laces are tied securely and the tongue is properly positioned. Reapply a waterproofing spray if the original treatment has worn off.
Feet feel cold despite insulation.
Verify that the socks worn are appropriate for cold weather (e.g., wool or thermal blends). Ensure boots are not too tight, which can restrict circulation.
Soles feel slippery.
Clean the lug outsole to remove any mud or debris that might be affecting grip. Check the tread for excessive wear; if worn, consider replacement.
Leather appears dry or cracked.
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for nubuck leather to restore moisture and flexibility. Avoid exposing boots to excessive heat for drying.
