Product questions
What is a Desert Boot?
A Desert Boot is an ankle-height boot with a simple, relaxed silhouette. It is often associated with suede uppers and casual elegance, making it suitable for smart-casual wardrobes.
What is the difference between Aria Cortina and Heritage Desert Boot?
Aria Cortina is softer and unlined, making it lighter and more suitable for mild weather. Heritage Desert Boots are more structured and better suited to cooler conditions.
How should I care for suede Desert Boots?
Brush suede gently after wear and avoid heavy water exposure. If the boots get wet, let them dry naturally with shoe trees before brushing the nap back into shape.
