Kickers Kick Hi Boots are engineered for everyday wear, providing both style and practicality. Their chunky sole offers excellent shock absorption, making them comfortable for prolonged periods of walking, whether navigating city streets or standing through casual events. The durable leather construction with its sleek black patent finish means they can withstand the rigors of daily use while maintaining a distinct visual appeal, making them a reliable choice for school, work, or leisure activities. They are particularly well-suited for adding a touch of classic, rugged, yet modern style to casual attire, such as jeans, chinos, or skirts. While designed for general everyday conditions, they are not specialized performance footwear for activities like hiking or extreme sports, but rather excel as robust and stylish casual boots.
Your Kickers Kick Hi Boots require minimal "setup" beyond putting them on. New leather boots may feel stiff initially. For optimal comfort:
Wear Regularly: Begin by wearing your boots for short periods, gradually increasing wear time.
Thick Socks: Wear thick socks during the break-in period to minimize friction and aid stretching.
Shoe Stretcher (Optional): For targeted pressure points, consider using a shoe stretcher.
These boots are highly versatile and complement a wide range of casual and smart-casual outfits. They pair well with:
Jeans (skinny, straight, or relaxed fit)
Chinos and work trousers
Skirts and dresses (for a robust, edgy look)
Corduroy and other durable fabrics
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your leather boots:
Clean Regularly: For the patent finish, wipe off dirt and dust with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and dry immediately.
Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or brushes on patent leather as they can damage the finish.
Minimize Creasing: While some creasing is natural, store boots with shoetrees or crumpled paper to help maintain their shape.
Water Protection: Patent leather offers some natural water resistance, but for prolonged exposure, a protective spray designed for patent leather can be beneficial.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Avoid storing in direct contact with other items that could transfer color.
