- Is the Gemma combat boot true to size?
- Most owners say it fits close to size, but several report a narrow fit and size up half a size, especially for thicker socks.
- How do you put them on?
- The laces are mostly decorative for fit; a side zipper does the work, so you can pull them on and off without unlacing.
- Are they good in rain or snow?
- No. The suede and leather upper is not waterproof, and wet weather can stain the suede. Treat them before wear and keep them for dry days.
- How does the Gemma compare with Dr. Martens 1460?
- The Gemma is softer, lighter and easier to break in, but the Dr. Martens is more durable and handles weather better.
- Can you replace the insole?
- The synthetic insole is thin and not designed to be removed, but many owners add a thin insert for more arch support.
- What do you get in the box?
- One pair of boots with the laces already fitted. No extra laces or care products are included.
