In our experience Olang shoe sizes are slightly smaller and we would suggest that you buy a size larger than you would normally buy.

Please note the boots are made in euro sizing which does not exactly match UK sizing.  Please look at our size chart on each product page to check the size you should buy.  

Suede or nubuck leather boots can be maintained with a suede or nubuck spray that is available in many shoe, sports, outdoor and camping stores.  We would recommend that your boots are sprayed regularly to ensure maximum protection.

Oiled leather boots can be maintained with a suitable spray or wax. 

Synthetic boots can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild detergent. 

Note: We do not suggest washing with anything stronger than mild detergent or placing the boots in a washing machine, always dry boots naturally never use a tumble dryer or place boots on a radiator.

Boots with rubber 'welly' soles are waterproof up to where the seam meets the upper, the upper is water-resistant.

Boots with an Olantex membrane are breathable and are snow-repellent (not waterproof in wet snow). The membrane gives added protection against the wet (light rain and wet grass) but does not make them waterproof and boots with this membrane would not be suitable for prolonged periods of rain or walking through puddles. Only a wellington boot can be considered 100% waterproof.  

Boots with a Breathetex membrane are waterproof and breathable.

The zippers are not waterproof in any boot.

We cannot guarantee that any Olang boot will keep your feet warm under all circumstances.  The ability to stay warm differs from person to person and has to do with blood flow through the capillaries.  We would suggest you do not use cotton socks as the cotton stores perspiration and can lead to the foot feeling cold.  Always step in to dry boots with warm feet for the best effect.

Often moisture in the boots builds up from perspiration.  The ‘welly’ sole boots are waterproof up to the stitch line, but do not ventilate and that may cause perspiration.  To test if the boot is leaking, ensure the liner is dry, place the boot in to a container of water up to the stitch line.  Please note the zippers used on the boots are not waterproof.

If you have a complaint, we would suggest you contact the shop where you purchased your boots.  The retailer will handle the complaint and whether it is covered by the warranty.  If necessary they may need to Contact us for our advice and we may request the boots be returned for assessment, you will need to supply the receipt of purchase.  If the purchase was made outside of the UK please contact the manufacturer using: info@olang.it

Vibram were the first manufacturer to use rubber with a treaded sole. With 60 years experience they are at the forefront of design and development in rubber and plastics. Each sole gives the maximum performance, grip, durability and comfort. All soles are tested under hard and difficult conditions to ensure they perform whatever the weather.

Olantex, also called a membrane, is specially developed by Olang and is bonded between layers in the boot.  This protective layer ensures water resistance in snowy conditions (not wet snow) and breathability.

BreatheTex builds on the technical strengths of Olantex, ensuring the boot is both water and breathable.

Note, the zippers are not waterproof.

A number of boots have a virgin wool liner.  This is real sheep’s wool that has not been processed after shearing, offering the ultimate in warmth.

This is authentic shearling from the Scottish Highlands, double faced, offering the perfect combination of comfort and thermal insulation.

All the different types of leather used in the construction of Olang’s uppers are tanned with sustainable technologies to reduce the environmental impact.  They are treated of become water repellent.  The surface of the leather gets a specific finish that is resistant to water penetration and absorption.

The OC System helps you stay a step ahead. The non-slip system is built into many of the Olang winter footwear styles blending fashion and function.  The non-slip system increases grip, helping you to walk comfortably and keep a firm footing on icy surfaces. The system features stainless steel studs and a framework created with special flexible polyurethane that is durable at even the most extreme temperatures. These studs can be turned over in slippery weather conditions, providing good grip on slippery surfaces. The brackets can then be turned back so that the spikes disappear. The OC system Key: makes it easy to use the OC system. Use the unique design to flip the OC system ON or OFF in a flash.

The spare parts for the OC system used on Olang boots can be purchased separately.  There are numerous types of OC spares which vary across styles and seasons, because of this we do not list the spares to sell online.  Please use our Contact us form to send an email to us with the model name of your boots and we will identify the correct spare part for you.   If you are unsure of the model name we will ask you to send a photo of the sole and the boot side on to help us.

Every year new snow boots are delivered to our stockists from September to December.  Ask your local retailer what styles they are planning to stock.
