FAQs
How do I clean my Kickers Kick Hi boots?
For general cleaning, wipe the leather with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning and conditioning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner suitable for black leather. Always follow the product instructions.
Are these boots waterproof?
While the premium leather offers some natural resistance to light moisture, these boots are not fully waterproof. For enhanced water resistance, consider applying a dedicated leather protector spray or wax.
Do I need to break in these boots?
Yes, like most high-quality leather boots, a break-in period is recommended. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the leather to mold comfortably to your feet, ensuring long-term comfort.
What is the best way to maintain the leather?
Regularly clean, condition, and polish the leather to keep it supple, prevent cracking, and maintain its appearance. Protect them from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures.
How should I store my boots when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and absorb any residual moisture, preventing creasing.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff and uncomfortable.
This is common with new leather boots. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to soften and mold to your feet. You can also try using a leather stretching spray or softener to accelerate the process.
Leather appears dull or scuffed.
Clean the leather thoroughly with a damp cloth, then apply a suitable leather conditioner to rehydrate. For scuffs, use a black leather polish and buff gently to restore the shine.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
New rubber soles can sometimes lack initial grip. Wear them on rougher surfaces like concrete or pavement to scuff them up naturally. For persistent slipperiness, a shoemaker can add a thin, anti-slip layer to the sole.
Boots making squeaking noises.
Squeaking often comes from friction between components. Try removing the insoles and dusting the inside of the boot with talcum powder. If the squeak persists, it might be the sole, and a shoemaker can advise further.

Care Instructions:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust after each use.
- Deep Cleaning: For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner appropriate for black leather. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few weeks or months, depending on wear, to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This helps maintain its natural sheen.
- Polishing: Use a black leather polish to restore shine and cover minor scuffs. Buff gently with a soft brush or cloth.
- Drying: If boots get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), which can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creases.
