FAQs

How do I clean and care for the leather?
Wipe with a damp cloth, use mild leather cleaner for tougher stains, and apply a leather conditioner regularly. Allow to air dry naturally if wet.
Are these shoes suitable for wet conditions?
Yes, the siped rubber outsole is designed to provide reliable traction on both wet and dry surfaces, making them suitable for use near water.
What is the benefit of the OrthoLite® footbed?
The OrthoLite® footbed offers superior cushioning, breathability, and moisture management, enhancing overall comfort during wear.
Does purchasing this shoe support ethical practices?
Yes, by purchasing this product, you are supporting Leather Working Group certified tanneries, which adhere to responsible leather production standards.
Can these shoes be worn for formal occasions?
These boat shoes are primarily designed for casual wear and are best suited for relaxed settings rather than formal events.
What is the fit like?
The fit is generally true to size for most users. However, as with any leather shoe, a break-in period may be needed. Consider trying them on if possible for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Using shoe trees can help stretch them gently. A professional cobbler can also assist with stretching.
Leather scuffs or scratches easily
Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, apply a matching color leather polish or cream. A leather conditioner can help maintain the surface.
Outsole loses grip over time
Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris, as this can affect traction. If the siping is worn down, the grip may be compromised. Regular cleaning is recommended.
Discoloration of leather
This can be due to exposure to elements or improper cleaning. Use a leather cleaner and conditioner suitable for the color of the shoe. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
