FAQs
What is the primary material of this shoe?
The shoe is primarily made from Premium Timberland® Leather.
How do I adjust the fit of the shoe?
The 360° functional lacing system allows you to tighten or loosen the laces around the collar to achieve a customized fit.
Are these shoes suitable for hiking?
These boat shoes are designed for casual wear and offer reliable traction, but they are not intended for strenuous hiking or rugged terrain.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather every 3-6 months, or more frequently if the shoes are frequently exposed to harsh weather conditions or extensive cleaning.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the leather can be treated for water resistance, these shoes are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
What makes the 'Handsewn' aspect important?
The handsewn construction is a traditional method that indicates high craftsmanship, contributing to the shoe's durability and classic aesthetic.

Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff initially.
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to gradually break them in. Applying a small amount of leather conditioner can also help soften the material.
Laces become worn or frayed.
Replace laces with new rawhide or similar material boat shoe laces. Ensure the length is appropriate for the 360° lacing system.
Soles show signs of wear.
While the lug outsole is durable, regular use will cause wear. For significant wear, consult a cobbler about potential sole repair or replacement.
