FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
These shoes are constructed from leather and are water-resistant to a degree, but they are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to water can damage the leather.
How do I break in new boat shoes?
Wear them for short periods indoors initially. The handsewn leather construction is designed to mold to your foot for a comfortable fit over time.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, you can wear them with or without socks. Many people prefer no-show socks for a cleaner look, or to wear them sockless for maximum breathability.
What is the difference between Lake House and Classic Boat series?
While both offer a classic boat shoe silhouette, the 'Lake House' series often emphasizes a more relaxed, outdoor-inspired aesthetic, whereas 'Classic Boat' refers to the timeless, traditional design. Specific material and construction details may vary slightly between models within these series.
How often should I condition the leather?
The frequency depends on usage and climate. In dry conditions or with frequent wear, conditioning every 2-3 months is recommended. Observe the leather's appearance for signs of dryness.
Do the rubber soles leave marks on floors?
No, the outsole is specifically designed to be non-marking, which helps prevent scuffing or leaving marks on indoor surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a leather conditioner to restore moisture and flexibility.
Soles feel slippery on very wet surfaces
While siped, extreme wetness can reduce traction. Ensure soles are clean and free of debris.
Fit feels too tight initially
Wear the shoes for short periods to allow the leather to mold to your foot. The 360° lacing can also be adjusted.
