Why choose the Koel Filas Hydro women's Chelsea barefoot ankle boots at Cacles Barefoot?

• Highly durable water-repellent leather upper (Hydro Leather): Natural leather specially treated to effectively repel water and external moisture, making it easy to clean and keeping feet dry and comfortable on rainy days or wet asphalt.

• Classic Chelsea design with elastic side panels: Features two wide elastic bands on both sides that make slipping them on easier without the need for zippers or laces, ensuring a comfortable fit without pressure points on the ankle.

• Chrome-free leather lining (Chrome-Free Leather): Soft-touch eco-friendly and hypoallergenic inner lining that optimally absorbs internal moisture, prevents chafing and ensures healthy breathability.

• Flat removable recycled insole: Includes a completely removable flat insole made from recycled materials that makes it easier to ventilate the footwear, maintain daily hygiene and check the available space for the toes.

• Functional heel pull tab: Practical rear loop that makes it easier to slide the foot inside comfortably while protecting the counter structure.

• Lightweight and flexible construction: Anatomical ankle boots that follow the natural movement of the foot without adding stiffness or heaviness, ideal for long days.

Care and maintenance tips for water-repellent leather (Hydro Leather)

1. Regular cleaning: Gently wipe away dirt, dust or surface mud with a damp cloth or soft sponge after use.

2. Refreshing the water-repellent treatment: With continued use and exposure to water, it is recommended to periodically apply a neutral waterproofing spray to regenerate the water-repellent layer without altering the natural breathability of the leather.

3. Care for the elastic panels: Avoid applying oily products or waxes directly to the textile elastic side bands to preserve their elasticity and original texture.

4. Drying at room temperature: If the interior gets damp, remove the insole and let it dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Avoid proximity to radiators, heaters or direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the leather.
