Care
The rugged Men's Bergen Leather Waterproof Boots are designed to help keep you warm and comfortable in snowy conditions. A 200 g HEATSEEKER™ synthetic insulation, waterproof DryVent™ bootie, and rich full-grain leather upper stand up to winter trail days, while Icepick® rubber lugs that harden below freezing provide biting traction on snow and ice. Built for snow shovels, frozen trails, and deep-winter base camp duties.
200 g HEATSEEKER™ synthetic insulation
200 g HEATSEEKER™ synthetic insulation delivers substantial warmth for snowy conditions — synthetic fill that maintains warmth even in damp conditions, perfect for active winter use
Waterproof DryVent™ bootie
Waterproof DryVent™ bootie is a full waterproof internal liner that protects feet from rain, snow, and slush — the kind of construction used in heavy-duty winter boots
Rich waxy full-grain leather upper
Rich, waxy, full-grain leather upper that develops character with wear and stands up to winter trail abuse — a heritage leather build that looks better the more you wear it
Icepick® rubber lugs
Icepick® rubber lugs are molded on the softer SURFACE CTRL™ outsole and harden when the temperature falls below freezing to provide biting traction on ice and frozen ground — winter-specific performance
SURFACE CTRL™ outsole
Durable SURFACE CTRL™ outsole is optimized for weight and versatility and is made with 10% rubber from smallholder farmers committed to agroforestry principles and regenerative agriculture practices
4.5 mm lugs with debris spacing
Substantial spacing between the 4.5 mm lugs for traction on snow and mud and for debris removal — snow and mud shed easily to keep the outsole biting in
Higher midsole sidewalls
Higher midsole sidewalls for added protection and stability — shields the foot on uneven terrain and adds lateral stability for side-hilling and descents
Rubber toe + heel wraps
Rubber toe and heel wraps for added protection and durability where you need it most — kick rocks, dig into ice, and the wraps take the abuse
Easy on/off hardware
Metal eyelets for easy on/off plus large heel and tongue webbing loops make it easier to put on and take off boots even when you're wearing gloves
Leather Working Group certified
100% of our leather is sourced from Leather Working Group-certified tanneries — better animal welfare and more sustainable leather production as standard

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 which can damage the full-grain leather, the waterproof bootie, and the Icepick® lugs.
Drying
Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat or sunlight. Remove the insole and loosen the laces to allow airflow through the DryVent™ bootie. Never tumble dry or use a radiator — high heat damages the waterproof membrane and the Icepick® lug formulation.
Leather Conditioning
Periodically condition the waxy full-grain leather upper with a leather conditioner to maintain suppleness, water resistance, and the patina. Buff with a soft cloth after conditioning.
Outsole Care
Clear snow, ice, mud, and debris from the Icepick® lugs with a stiff brush after each use. Icepick® lugs harden below freezing — they need to be clear to maintain biting traction.
Salt & Slush Care
Wipe salt and slush off the leather upper with a damp cloth after every winter outing. Salt damages the leather finish and can corrode the metal eyelets over time if left to dry.
Insulation Care
The 200 g HEATSEEKER™ synthetic insulation retains warmth even when damp. If the insulation loses loft after years of use, the boots may need to be retired for trail use (still fine for casual winter wear).
DryVent™ Bootie Care
The internal DryVent™ bootie does the heavy lifting on waterproofing. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents which can damage the bootie — spot clean only.
Hardware Check
Inspect the metal eyelets, heel/tongue webbing loops, and laces before each trip. Salt + ice can corrode the metal eyelets over time — replace frayed laces and clear debris to keep the lacing system working smoothly.
Storage
Store loosely in a cool, dry place away from direct heat. Keep boots stuffed with paper or boot trees to maintain shape and prevent the leather upper from creasing. Avoid storing near heat sources which can dry out the leather.
