Barefoot feel (Zero Drop): A completely flat sole with no heel elevation promotes an upright posture and neutral biomechanical alignment of the spine.

Anatomical wide fit (Wide Toe Box): A very roomy toe box shaped to follow the foot’s natural form, allowing the metatarsals to spread freely without lateral pressure with every step.

Flexibility and low-profile traction: A pliable construction that follows the foot’s natural flex as you walk without restricting movement.

Cleaning and care tips for oil suede
-
Regular cleaning: Remove accumulated dirt or dust by gently brushing with a brush designed for suede or nubuck leather.
-
Caring for oil suede: Apply a balm or conditioner formulated for oiled leather periodically to preserve the leather’s flexibility and renew its protective coating. We recommend applying a protective waterproofing spray to guard against splashes.
-
Zipper care: Occasionally wipe the zipper teeth with a dry cloth or soft brush to prevent dust buildup and ensure smooth operation.
-
Air-dry at room temperature: If the inside gets damp, remove the insole and let the boots air-dry naturally in the shade in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct exposure to heat sources (radiators, heaters or direct sunlight) to prevent the suede from becoming stiff.
