Keeping your boots waterproof

View on help center

Cairn Mid boots have a waterproof membrane inside, but the leather outside still needs care so it doesn't soak through and feel wet.

  1. Brush off mud and rinse with lukewarm water.
  2. Dry at room temperature, away from heaters, with the insoles out.
  3. Apply a water-based reproofer to the damp leather every few months.
