Fit and Sizing

The Xerocole Expedition is designed with a roomier fit. Therefore, We recommend if you have wide or fuller feet choose your normal size. For people with a narrow or low volume foot, we recommend sizing down 1 full size from your measured or usual size (.e.g if you are normally an 11, go with a 10).

Erem provides half-size increments for the Xerocole to fit every foot. But, if for any reason your product doesn’t fit, you have 30 days for free exchanges and returns. Just make sure to keep the products unworn and unaltered.

Care & Cleaning

How to Care for Your Xerocoles

1) Reverse grain leather is a very durable material. Still, for best performance, clean regularly

2) If the leather gets wet, we suggest stuffing the boots with paper towels or newspaper while they dry to help the boots keep their shape.

3) Always let your Xerocoles dry naturally. Don't put them near / under direct heat.

4) Some people think that reverse grain leather looks best when brushed. Use specialized suede brushes for best results.

How to Clean Your Xerocoles:

1) Remove the laces from your boots for full access to the tongue and gusset.

2) Use a shoe brush and shoe wipes to remove dirt and debris from the suede and canvas.

3) Mix mild dish detergent into a bucket or sink filled with cold water. Do not use bar soap or detergents as many contain additives that can be harmful to suede and canvas.

4) Using an old toothbrush, dip it into the soapy water and gently brush in a circular motion to clean.

5) Without getting any water inside of the boots, use a clean, damp cloth and rinse the soap off. Repeat until the boot is clean and all traces of soap are removed.

6) Crumple up a few sheets of paper towel or newspaper, and stuff it in the boot to help the boot keep its shape while drying.

7) Place the boots in a well-ventilated area and let the boots dry naturally. We do not recommend putting your boots in the dryer or any heat source under any circumstances.

Other Cleaning Tips & Tricks

Always allow your boots to air dry. If your boots get wet, make sure to remove the footbed insole to ensure the interior fully dries.
