A quality pair of Redback boots is built to last. Whether you're wearing them on the worksite, around the farm, or as your everyday footwear, a little care goes a long way in extending their lifespan and keeping them looking their best.
Different leathers require different care, so we've put together this simple guide to help you get the most out of your Redback boots.
Caring for Full-Grain Leather Boots
Full-grain leather is durable, hard-wearing, and develops character over time. With regular maintenance, it can provide years of reliable performance.
How to Care for Full-Grain Leather
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust.
- Allow boots to dry naturally at room temperature.
- Apply a quality leather conditioner regularly to maintain flexibility.
- Avoid placing boots near direct heat sources such as heaters, fireplaces, or radiators.
Pro Tip
Using a quality leather conditioner every few months helps prevent the leather from drying out, stiffening, or cracking.
