FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The Kickers Kick Hi Core Shoes are made from genuine leather, which offers good natural water resistance to light rain and splashes. They are not fully waterproof, but applying a suitable leather protector spray can significantly enhance their water repellency.
How do I clean the chunky sole?
The chunky sole can be cleaned with a stiff brush and warm, soapy water to remove dirt and grime. For stubborn marks, a gentle all-purpose cleaner can be used. Ensure you wipe off any soap residue thoroughly.
Will the black leather fade over time?
With proper care, including regular cleaning and conditioning, the black leather should maintain its rich color. Exposure to harsh sunlight or lack of conditioning can cause some fading or dryness over extended periods.
What is the best way to store these boots?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape, prevent creasing, and absorb moisture.
Can I replace the leather floret?
The leather floret is an iconic part of the Kickers design. While it's generally attached securely, if it gets lost or damaged, you would need to contact Kickers customer service or an authorized repair center for potential replacement options.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
Kickers Kick Hi boots typically offer a comfortable fit for standard widths. For wider feet, it's recommended to try them on to ensure adequate comfort, as leather will stretch and mold slightly over time.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or cracked
Regularly apply a good quality leather conditioner to keep the leather moisturized and flexible. For existing dry spots, apply conditioner more frequently.
Scuffs or minor scratches on the leather
Clean the area, then apply a matching black shoe polish. Buff with a soft cloth or brush until the scuff is less visible and the shine is restored.
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
These are genuine leather and require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Thick socks can help prevent blisters during this phase.
Squeaking sound when walking
Often caused by friction between parts of the shoe. Try dusting talcum powder inside the boot, under the insole, or along the tongue to reduce friction.
Laces fraying or breaking
Laces are a replaceable part. Purchase new thick, durable laces that match the original style. Consider knotting the ends to prevent fraying.

Care
To ensure your Kickers Kick Hi Core Shoes remain in excellent condition and last for years, follow these care guidelines for genuine leather:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove dirt and dust. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner according to its instructions.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few months (or more frequently if worn often) to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. Apply a small amount with a clean cloth and buff gently.
- Protection: Before first wear and periodically thereafter, apply a water and stain protector spray designed for leather footwear. This creates a barrier against moisture and spills.
- Polishing: For black leather, use a black shoe polish to cover scuffs and restore shine. Apply with a cloth, let it dry, then buff to a shine with a clean brush or cloth.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never use direct heat (e.g., radiator, hairdryer) as this can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture when not in use.
