Care
The Men's Back-To-Berkeley IV Leather Waterproof Boots bring back the classic look of this line of boots while adding modern features and comfort. Built with internal waterproof membranes and adhesive and seam-seal constructions, they keep feet dry through wet trails, muddy paths, and rainy days in town — all in a heritage silhouette that pairs as easily with jeans as it does with technical layers.
Full-grain leather upper
Premium full-grain leather main upper delivers the durability, weather resistance, and break-in character of a classic hiking boot
DryVent™ waterproof membrane
Internal waterproof DryVent™ membrane plus seam-seal construction keep feet dry through wet trails, slush, and rain
SURFACE CTRL™ rubber outsole
SURFACE CTRL™ rubber outsole is optimized for weight and versatility with grippy lugs that hold on both wet and dry surfaces
Plant-based midsole foam
Molded-EVA midsole with up to 51% ethylene from plant-based content (per ASTM D6866-16) — less petroleum, similar cushioning and rebound
Compression-molded TPU heel clip
Compression-molded TPU heel clip provides added lateral stability when scrambling, side-hilling, and carrying a pack
Recycled PET mesh lining
100% recycled P.E.T. mesh lining wicks moisture and helps regulate temperature inside the boot
Faux-leather padded collar
Faux-leather collar with padded tongue for out-of-the-box comfort and a clean break-in
Suede logo patch and rand
Suede logo patch and rand add classic hiker detail and reinforce high-wear edges
Nickel-free metal hardware
Nickel-free metal hardware avoids reactivity for sensitive skin and reduces metal allergens at the contact points

Cleaning
Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
Drying
Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat or sunlight. Remove the insole and loosen the laces to allow airflow.
Leather Care
Condition the full-grain leather upper periodically with a leather conditioner to maintain suppleness, water resistance, and the patina. Buff with a soft cloth after conditioning.
Outsole Care
Clear mud and debris from the lugs with a stiff brush after each use to preserve traction and prevent long-term buildup.
Waterproofing
Internal DryVent™ membrane does the heavy lifting. Re-treat the leather upper with a suitable spray-on DWR periodically to maintain surface water beading.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep footwear loosely laced or stuffed with paper to maintain shape and prevent collar creasing.
