How to Care for your Dublin Footwear

Some helpful hints on getting the most from your Dublin Footwear

Leather is a natural product that requires care. To ensure your new purchase provides you with optimum performance please see the following helpful information:

  • We recommend that all boots are wiped clean with a damp cloth after each use; especially after wearing in muddy or dusty environments or in contact with manure/waste liquids which can be corrosive to leather.
  • Should your Dublin's become saturated, please remove the insoles and fill with paper to retain their shape. Please dry them away from direct heat and then dry naturally to prevent the leather cracking.
  • Use a beeswax or leather conditioner to keep the leather in best condition. These can both nourish the leather and keep them looking great.
  • Do not apply polish or leather conditioner to suede / nubuck / distressed leather as this can alter the look of the leather.

 

Did you know?

  • Some styles of Dublin Footwear are waterproofed. In excessive wet conditions beyond three hours and with the insulation of zips, gussets, seams and details on the boot this can break down the waterproofing guard.
  • Where your Dublin boot is waterproofed, there is also a waterproof membrane to the ankle and all seams are sealed and taped with a waterproof sealer.
  • Over time, wearing in excessive wet conditions can eventually allow moisture in if the boot is not naturally dried between each use.
