WARRANTY

Boot Warranty

Every pair is backed by our 12-month manufacturer’s warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, wherever you bought them. Our policy is in addition to your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.

Any unauthorised alterations may take the footwear out of compliance with the safety standard, void its certification, and mean damage caused by the alteration isn’t covered by our warranty.

See our Warranty Policy for more details.

Manufacturing Faults

Think your boots have a manufacturing fault? You can claim directly with us using the button below. You’ll need proof of purchase and photos of the boots, the issue and the batch label.

Bought your boots from a stockist? We recommend contacting the store where you bought them first so they can assess the issue and assist with your claim. You can also contact us directly by clicking the button below about a product fault or manufacturer’s warranty claim. Please provide proof of purchase and details of the issue.

How long boots last depends on how they're used. Normal wear isn't a fault. When the outsole is worn through or the toecap is exposed, it's time to replace them. 

SIZE GUIDE

Sizing is based on UK measurements, with foot dimensions shown in millimetres. Use this chart to match your fit.

FIT & COMFORT

Boots should work with your feet, not against them. Here’s how ours fit right from the start.

Find Your Fit

A proper fit depends on more than foot length. While length is the most important measurement, the width of your forefoot and the height of your instep also affect comfort and fit. Our half sizes are the same length, but offer more width and height. Size charts are a useful guide when you can’t try footwear on, but they only estimate size based on foot length. For the best fit, we recommend trying your boots or shoes on before making your final choice.

What Makes the Fit

  • Shaped to match natural foot contours
  • Roomy toe box without slipping
  • Built-in arch support
  • Heel lock to prevent rubbing

Fit Tips

  • Try boots on late in the day
  • Wear the socks you’ll use for work
  • Size up for Workwear if in between, size down for Everyday

BOOT CARE

Simple steps to keep your boots in working condition for longer.

Full-grain Leather

Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to dry naturally. Condition the leather regularly to maintain flexibility and prevent drying or cracking. Avoid direct heat.

Nubuck Leather

Brush gently with a nubuck or suede brush to remove dirt. Use a nubuck cleaner when needed and apply a protective spray to help repel water and stains. Do not use leather conditioner.

Suede

Use a suede brush to lift dirt and restore texture. Spot-clean with a suede cleaner and apply a water-repellent spray for protection. Avoid getting suede saturated and keep away from heat sources.

Aquapel Leather

Brush off dirt, wipe clean, and let the boots dry naturally. Reapply the water-repellent treatment as needed, especially after wet conditions. Avoid heat and use only cleaners suited to treated leather.
