Footwear Maintenance
To preserve your Arbortec boots and ensure longevity it is extremely important that they are maintained correctly. Arbortec recommends cleaning and treating your boots with products from our range, that have been chosen specifically, and follow the guidelines set out below.
- Always clean your boots regularly.
- Leather footwear: thoroughly clean your footwear with the recommend gel, polish off then finish with a waterproofing cream such as Chelsea Dubbin Cream, Nikwax.
- Nubuck/Suede footwear: brush away all dirt and contaminants then follow with the specialist Nubuck and Suede waterproofing products available from Arbortec.
- Never clean with solvents of any kind.
- Do not leave your footwear in direct sunlight or force dry.
- Ensure your footwear is completely dry before wearing them to prevent the formation of mildew and unpleasant smells.
Waterproofing
The waterproofing can be compromised if the boots aren't fully dry before each use. If the boots are left wet to be used while wet, over a period of time the water can be forced through the leather and Breathedry system. To maintain the waterproofing on the footwear we suggest the following:
- Clean the boots.
- Leave to fully dry.
- Re waterproof using Chelsea Dubbin Cream / Nikwax.

Very comfortable chainsaw boots
After wearing these boots for about two months I’m very pleased with my purchase. I generally wear a size 9 in most boots and that’s what I ordered and they fit perfectly. They are not however, lightweight slippers. I do not climb in them, but they’re great for groundie work and spiking.
great climbing boots for spikes
I really like them with spikes, more than spikeless climbing, they are solidly built and comfortable for 8 hours + wearing spikes.
Good boots
I have a pair of the Scafell boots in blue. I work in the upper midwest and have been wearing them for probably 8 months now, through most days of the last winter. They have held up really well, and are obviously designed for the rigors of tree work. I feel like I'm usually wearing holes through the upper by this point, or have ground off the soles, but these are still super solid. The waterproofing is also really good. Not impervious, but better than others I have worn. I like the height and stability of a logger, but the comfort and climbing ease of a hiker, and these are somewhere in the middle of the two. I climb in them everyday, and they are great on the ground too. Decently comfortable in spikes. Only downsides for me is that they are a little heavy (chainsaw bulk), and they seem to hold a lot of moisture, at least for me. That being said, I did install different insoles for comfort/support. Overall, I would recommend.
