Applying a suede protectant before wearing your footwear for the first time will help guard the surface. A suede brush can be used to remove dust and restore the nap after each use. Suede and Nubuck finishes should be kept away from large amounts of water due to its porous quality.

Reviews
Perfect fit. Good look. I
"Perfect fit. Good look. I bought the 11 eye and love them. Needed shoes for summer so I bought the 8 eye. They’re awesome. I have my boots on 8-12 hours a day and I work on my feet. These are heavy duty but light enough to keep me comfortable."
Best Boot i've ever owned,
"Best Boot i've ever owned, I have had my eyes on these for years . Won't be my only order!"
The quality of my boots
"The quality of my boots are really great, I am very satisfied. I wear them very often and they feel comfortable and durable. I assume I will wear them for a very, very long time."
Great boot , don’t bother
"Great boot , don’t bother with anything else, just get these."
runs a bit too large
"runs a bit too large on people with narrow feet"
Love these boots!! This is
"Love these boots!! This is the second pair as I wear them to work and wore the life out of my first pair. This time I went down half a size as my first pair of boots got rather loose after the leather softened but I find that they run true to size"
The boots are doing pretty
"The boots are doing pretty good so far for my job, they do run a bit bigger so I probably should have gotten a half size smaller but it isn't too bad with my foot width. They hurt a little the first 4 days but that is to be expected with good boots in my experience, still a little stiff but not as bad and getting better every day. Overall will definitely get my next pair here and will recommend boots from this company to others"
Nice work boot, clean look
"Nice work boot, clean look for office and warehouse. The leather is of good quality, a little thin and you may need to add an insole for comfort over the leather board. Quality of the outsole is good, nice thick lugs."
Q&A
Greasy leather needs to be fed with Dubbin wax, oil or grease for nourishment. Apply sparingly to avoid creating a dull appearance.
