Boot care instructions
Boot general care
To ensure optimal performance and durability, please follow the instructions below carefully when using this product.
These guidelines are essential for proper handling, maintenance, and storage.
⚠️ Please note: Failure to comply with the following instructions may result in damage to the product and may void the warranty. The warranty is valid only when the product is used in strict accordance with these instructions.
Leather
- Allow boots to dry after wearing and store them in a cool, dry, and ventilated place—always away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent cracking and stiffness.
- On a clean boot—after gently removing sand, dust, mud, and sweat—apply the boot cream carefully, covering EXCLUSIVELY leather surface with a soft brush. Let it sit for a few minutes, then polish with a wool cloth.
- EGO7 boot cream leather conditioner provides surface protection from external elements, preserving the material’s moisture and appearance, elasticity and resistance to wear.
- Use colored cream matching the boot’s tone. For boots of other colors, use only clear boot cream to avoid color shifting
Insert the inflatable boot trees (if not provided you may use paper scraps instead) to maintain the original shape
E-Tex
- E-Tex requires ZERO CARE—do not apply polish, cream, sprays, grease, glue, or gripping materials.
- Chemicals can irreversibly damage E-Tex.
- Clean only with a damp cloth to remove dirt.
Zip Maintenance
Limited Zip Warranty
- EGO7 boots are equipped with certified YKK zippers for superior resistance.
- Any zipper defect due to material flaws will typically show within the first few uses.
- After that, zipper issues will be considered normal wear and tear and are not covered under warranty.
- Please watch our tutorial video on how to wear EGO7 boots for the first time to avoid zip damage
Zip Cleaning & Care
- Keep zippers clean from grease, dust, and horse sweat to ensure smooth operation and prevent breakage.
- Always check that pants, socks, or other fabrics do not get caught in the zipper.
- Always keep the zipper slider straight and aligned with the zipper teeth when opening or closing. Twisting or pulling at an angle can damage or break the zipper.
- The lifespan of a zipper depends greatly on usage—similar to how tire wear depends on road conditions and driving habits.
Tips for Prolonging Zipper Life
- Keep the zipper and teeth clean; check regularly that nothing obstructs the zip path while opening or closing.
- Assist zip closure with your fingers when wearing the boots the first few times—avoid pulling forcefully.
- Always fully open the zipper (down to the heel) when putting on or taking off the boots.
- Use the practical inside flap to ease wearing and always check that it is properly positioned.
