CreasesUpdated 7 days ago

Leather is a natural material, and it often behaves unpredictably. Here are some typical areas where leather boots might crease differently between the left and right boot.


Tongue 

We suggest folding the tongue inward to help shape the leather. However, it's normal for the creases on both boots not to be identical or perfectly symmetrical.

This part of the boot bends with the ball's movements and the toes of the foot, causing creasing appearances variances between boots. Safety-toes can further affect this area, as they restrict flexibility, resulting in creases forming only in certain spots.

Creases here may vary. Depending on the boot's design and your walking habits, they can be more noticeable near the upper part of the boot or appear closer to the toes.

Side Uppers: Creasing is most common here, near the ankle. This is a natural occurrence due to the regular bending of this area during movement.


Understanding these patterns can help you anticipate how your boots will age and adapt as you wear them.
