Yes, the boots are made with three layers of materials and although it seems that the outside fabric gets wet, do not worry, it's normal. The inner layer is a waterproof membrane with heat-sealed seams, it is impossible for water to come in contact with the foot.
Yes! Thanks to the breathable fabrics used, the water vapor from the sweat is expelled and the feet remain dry and comfortable in any weather.
Boots are waterproof, however, please do not wash them in the washing machine as the membrane and the waterproofness may lose their benefits. Clean the outside of the shoes with a cloth, with warm water. Do not use chlorine, bleach, or sports cleaning foam as it can damage your shoes. After carefully cleaning your shoes, dry them naturally at moderate temperatures. Don't put your boots too close to direct heat or in a hot room as it could cause damage. The water-repellent material can decrease the efficiency of the shoes after usage. We recommend spraying them with water-repellent spray, which works best after cleaning them.
We don’t use any kind of leather, feather, or animal material. All materials are synthetic and recycled.
Yes, the insoles are removable and replaceable.

Boots are bigger and a greater amount of materials which are expensive indeed, but Sneakers have a greater load of human work, which is also very expensive because we produce in Europe. At the end the cost of both models are almost the same.
This way our customers can also make exchanges between our two models without having to pay more.
