Keep your Moonstar All-Weather Boots in excellent condition with these care tips:

Regular Cleaning: Wipe away dirt and mud with a damp cloth after each wear. The extensive rubber coverage makes cleaning easy - simply wipe down the rubber sections with a damp cloth or soft brush.

Canvas Care: For the exposed canvas areas, use a soft brush with mild soap and water to gently clean, then wipe with a clean damp cloth. The canvas is bonded to the rubber sole for waterproofing.

Rubber Care: Clean the vulcanised rubber sole, toe cap, and toe guard with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a soft brush with mild soap. The extra-rugged toe cap and toe guard are designed for durability in harsh conditions.

Waterproof Maintenance: While these boots are waterproof with the canvas bonded to the rubber sole, you can apply a waterproofing spray to the exposed canvas areas to maintain maximum water resistance after heavy use.

Drying: If boots get wet inside, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or fires. Stuff with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain shape. Never use a hairdryer or place near heaters as this can damage the traditional vulcanisation.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing in plastic bags which can trap moisture - use a breathable shoe bag or box instead.

Seasonal Care: After winter use in snow and salt, clean thoroughly to remove salt residue which can damage canvas and rubber over time. Rinse with clean water and allow to dry completely.

Important Note: These boots are handmade using the traditional "kay-ryu" vulcanisation process with natural rubber processed in-house. The extensive rubber coverage on the canvas upper makes them truly waterproof and designed for wet and snowy conditions. With proper care, they will provide reliable all-weather protection for many seasons.
