FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The Rigorer Classic Ultra Mini boots are pre-treated for water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions and should not be submerged in water or worn in heavy rain or snow.
How do I know if I have the right size?
These boots are designed to fit snugly and will stretch slightly with wear. If you are between sizes, it is generally recommended to size up for a more comfortable fit, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks.
Can I wash these boots in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the sheepskin and the construction of the boots.
How often should I reapply protector spray?
The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions. As a general guideline, reapply every few months or after cleaning, and whenever the boots appear to be losing their water repellency.
What is the benefit of the HERproject initiative?
HERproject is a collaborative initiative that works with factories to empower and educate women in the workplace, supporting their health, financial, and social well-being.
Do these boots offer arch support?
The Classic Ultra Mini boots are designed for comfort and flexibility with a lightweight sole. They offer minimal built-in arch support. If you require significant arch support, consider using custom or over-the-counter insoles.
What is the difference between the Classic Ultra Mini and the Classic Boot?
The primary difference is the shaft height. The Classic Ultra Mini features a shorter shaft, making it easier to slip on and off, while the Classic Boot has a taller shaft.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight
Sheepskin naturally stretches and molds to your foot over time. Wear them with thin socks initially, and they should become more comfortable with use.
Discoloration or stains on the surface
For minor surface marks, try a specialized sheepskin cleaner and a soft brush. For more stubborn stains, consult a professional cleaner specializing in sheepskin products. Always test cleaning solutions in an inconspicuous area first.
Slight odor inside the boots
Natural sheepskin can sometimes have a mild odor. This usually dissipates with wear. You can also try placing activated charcoal inserts or baking soda sachets inside the boots overnight.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
The Treadlite by UGG™ or EVA outsole is designed for flexibility and comfort. On extremely smooth or wet surfaces, exercise caution. Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris.
