FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
No, the Kickers Kick Hi boots are not waterproof. While they can offer some resistance to light moisture with appropriate treatment, they are not designed for heavy rain or wet conditions.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the product sizing chart provided by Kickers or the retailer. Generally, measure your foot length and compare it to the UK sizing guide. This specific product is listed as UK 12.
Can I wear these boots in the summer?
Yes, while they are ankle boots, the leather and construction are suitable for year-round wear. However, they may be warmer than other footwear options in very hot weather.
How often should I condition the leather?
It is recommended to condition the leather every 3-6 months, or more frequently if the boots are exposed to harsh weather conditions or appear dry.
What is the difference between Kick Hi and Kick Hi Classic?
While both are classic Kickers ankle boots, the 'Classic' designation often implies adherence to the original design specifications or a particular range. Specific details might vary slightly between models, but the core features remain similar.
Can these boots be resoled?
Typically, quality boots like the Kickers Kick Hi can be resoled by a professional cobbler, extending their lifespan. It's advisable to check with a local cobbler regarding their experience with this specific boot construction.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Wear the boots for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and conform to your foot shape. Ensure laces are not over-tightened.
Leather appears dry or cracked
Apply a good quality leather conditioner. Repeat application as needed, especially in dry climates or after exposure to harsh conditions.
Scuffs or marks on the leather
For minor scuffs, try buffing gently with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a matching color shoe polish or cream and follow with a leather conditioner.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. If the issue persists, consider roughening the sole slightly with fine-grit sandpaper or consult a cobbler for sole replacement options if heavily worn.

Compatibility: The Kickers Kick Hi boots are designed for adult male footwear sizing. They are generally compatible with most casual and smart-casual outfits.
Care:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
- Conditioning: Apply a quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out or cracking.
- Protection: Use a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather to offer some protection against the elements, though these are not waterproof.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape when not in use. Avoid storing in plastic bags, as leather needs to breathe.
