FAQs

How do I clean my Kickers Kick Hi leather boots?

Wipe the leather with a damp, soft cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner. Polish with a suitable black shoe polish to maintain shine and cover scuffs. Clean the sole with a brush.

Are these boots waterproof?

While the leather offers some natural resistance to light moisture, these boots are not fully waterproof. For protection in heavy rain, it is recommended to apply a waterproofing spray or wax specifically designed for leather footwear.

Do I need to break them in?

Yes, like most quality leather boots, a short break-in period is often beneficial. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the leather to soften and conform to the shape of your feet for optimal comfort.

How should I store my Kickers Kick Hi boots?

Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb internal moisture, prolonging their lifespan.

What kind of socks should I wear with these boots?

For optimal comfort and to prevent rubbing, we recommend wearing socks that cover the ankle and lower calf. Cotton or wool blend socks are typically good choices for breathability and cushioning.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, the laces are designed to be replaceable. You can find replacement laces from Kickers or other reputable footwear accessory brands that match the original thickness and length.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff or uncomfortable initially.

This is common with new leather footwear. Wear the boots for short periods at first to allow the leather to break in and mold to your feet. Applying a leather conditioner can also help soften the material over time.

Laces frequently come undone.

Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot. The thick laces are designed for a strong hold, so ensuring they are pulled taut before tying can help maintain tension.

Scuffs or minor marks appear on the leather.

For light scuffs, a soft cloth and a small amount of black shoe polish can often buff them out. For deeper marks, a leather repair kit or professional cleaning may be necessary. Regular conditioning helps prevent deeper scratches.

Sole appears dirty or loses grip.

Clean the chunky sole regularly using a stiff brush to remove embedded dirt and debris. For surface grime, wipe with a damp cloth. Ensuring the sole treads are clean will help maintain optimal grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

  1. Lacing: Thread the thick laces through the durable metal eyelets, starting from the toe end. Ensure the laces are evenly distributed.
  2. Fit Adjustment: Once laced, pull the laces firmly but comfortably to secure your foot. The thick laces allow for a strong, consistent hold. Double knot for added security if desired.
  3. First Wear: Like most new leather footwear, a short break-in period may be beneficial. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the leather to mould to your foot shape.

Compatibility

  • Apparel: These Kick Hi boots are highly versatile, pairing well with denim jeans, chinos, corduroys, and even some tailored trousers for a smart-casual look. They complement casual jackets, sweaters, and hoodies.
  • Seasonal Use: Suitable for year-round wear, though the leather upper may require additional waterproofing treatment for heavy rain or snow. They offer good warmth in cooler temperatures.

Care & Maintenance

  • Cleaning the Leather: Regularly wipe the leather upper with a damp, soft cloth to remove dust and dirt. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner. Always follow the product instructions.
  • Conditioning: Apply a good quality leather conditioner periodically (e.g., every 1-2 months depending on use) to keep the leather supple, prevent cracking, and maintain its appearance. Apply with a clean cloth and buff gently.
  • Polishing: For black leather, use a black shoe polish to restore shine and cover minor scuffs. Apply evenly and buff to a desired sheen.
  • Sole Care: Clean the chunky sole with a brush to remove trapped dirt and debris. A damp cloth can be used for surface cleaning.
  • Drying: If the boots get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
