Since calf leather is porous and absorbs water easily, avoid getting them wet. Getting the shoes soaking wet can irrevocably stain the leather, but if they just get a bit wet, stuffing the toe area with clean, un-dyed paper or cloth and letting them dry naturally, without heat, can help them to recover.

Most quality shoe repair shops will offer products to polish, protect, and refresh the leather's surface. A neutral cream polish—one without color—will also help protect the surface from scuffs and scrapes and keep the leather hydrated. If something's spilled on the leather, try using a soft cloth with a small amount of cleanser or cream on it. Rub the surface in a circular motion, then allow the shoe to dry before buffing the entire thing lightly with a dry, clean cloth.

We created the tall boot we needed in our own closets.

After perfecting the wear-all-day ankle boot with our Downtown Boot—and watching how strongly it resonated with our community—we knew there was a chance to take it higher. From there, our design team got busy taking the silhouette that shoppers adored and bringing it up a notch (or two). The result is a style with the same downtown edge, but higher.
