FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
These shoes are designed with leather uppers and are not inherently waterproof. They offer water resistance for casual wear but are not intended for immersion in water.
How do I break in these boat shoes?
Wear them for short periods around the house initially. The premium leather will naturally mold to your feet over time. Using them on shorter walks can also help speed up the break-in process.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, you can wear them with or without socks. Many prefer to wear boat shoes without socks for a classic look, but thin, no-show socks can also be worn for added comfort or hygiene.
What does 'certified tannery' mean for the leather?
It means the leather used in these shoes comes from a facility that has been evaluated by the Leather Working Group for its environmental practices, focusing on energy use, waste management, and water treatment.
How do I clean the faux crocodile finish?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For more stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water, as this could damage the finish.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is described as flat.
Are these shoes suitable for formal occasions?
These are classic casual shoes and are best suited for informal or smart-casual settings. They are not typically worn for formal events.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after first wear.
Leather will stretch slightly with wear. Wear them for short periods initially. If still uncomfortable, consider a leather stretcher or consult a shoe repair professional.
Squeaking noise when walking.
This can sometimes happen with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the tongue area. Ensure the laces are not too tight.
Leather appears dry or cracked.
Apply a quality leather conditioner following the product's instructions. Ensure shoes are cleaned before conditioning.
Outsole grip seems reduced.
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. If the siping (the small cuts on the sole) is worn down, the grip may be compromised.
