High performing and protective when you’re maneuvering in the elements outdoors, these waterproof Ariat Chelsea boots take it a step further with a timeless design that places them on equal footing for an evening out.

Daily Care: Remove everyday dust and dirt with a quick wipe-down using a damp cloth or horsehair brush.

Deep Cleaning: For tougher grime, mix a drop of mild dish soap with water. Dab the solution onto your boots and gently scrub with a soft-bristled toothbrush in small, circular motions.

Conditioning: Leather can dry out over time, just like skin. To prevent cracking, apply an oil-free leather conditioner about twice a month, ideally while the boots are still slightly damp from cleaning.

Polishing: Once dry, restore your boots’ natural shine by working a small amount of wax-based polish into the leather. Let it sit for a few minutes, then buff with a cotton cloth followed by a horsehair brush.

Waterproofing (Optional): Apply a water-repellent spray to protect your boots from light moisture and stains. While this won’t make them fully waterproof, it adds an extra layer of defense against rain, mud, and morning dew.

Storage: It’s best to store your boots away from direct sunlight in a cool, dry place. To help maintain their shape, stuff them with newspaper or use cedar shoe trees. And remember, your boots work hard, so give them a break between wears to keep them feeling fresh and lasting longer.
