Wolhford Boot Care

There are over 230 steps in hand-crafting a pair of Wohlford Boots, a labour intensive process that very few of the world’s bootmakers still use today. Wohlford Boots are hand-crafted using the same exacting methods in the same Vancouver factory store for nearly 70 years

Follow these boot care tips to ensure your Wohlford Boots stay in the best condition, and they'll last you for years.

  1. Only use Wohlford OK Oil for your footwear - using other, non-natural foot care products may void the warranty
  2. Regularly remove all mud, dirt, concrete, etc, from your boots. Over time these items will deteriorate the boot materials.
  3. Do not put your boots in front of a direct heat source.
  4. If you wear insoles, remove them from time to time to air out your boots

Breaking in your Wohlfords

Wohlfords are hand-crafted with premium leather, which means breaking in your boots will take a little extra investment of your time and patience.

Your investment will ensure your boots will give you the ultimate comfort for years to come.
