Product
Are Your Shoes & Boots Waterproof?
Unless specifically indicated in the Product Description, our shoes and boots are not waterproof. Our leathers have a level of natural water repellence because leather has oil at it's surface but should be treated with a protecter spray before initial wear. Our Inclement boot styles are water resistant and weather proof due to a Sympatex™ membrane interior that is water resistant, breathable and warm. None of our materials have been weather proofed before sale. It is the responsibility of the end consumer to weather protect. We advise that textile shoes should only be worn in the lightest of rain due to their delicate nature and natural jute soles should not come into contact with water at any time.
What Is The Difference Between A Nelson And Oscar?
Our Nelson and Oscar styles share the same almond toe shape last so, essentially have the same great fit*. They are both inspired by the classic Chelsea boot style but differ as follows; the Nelson boot is designed with exposed elastic guessets and the Oscar boot is always designed with covered elastic gussets.
*Both styles fit as a Mid Fit when unlined or lined with leather and both styles will fit as a True Fit when lined with fleece. Please check our Size Guide for size recommendation.
