Premium Leather Construction
We craft each pair of Alex Marie combat boots from premium full-grain leather that develops a beautiful patina over time. This natural material offers exceptional durability while conforming to your foot’s unique shape for a personalized fit.
The leather upper features reinforced stitching at high-stress points, ensuring these boots stand up to daily wear. We’ve treated the leather with a water-resistant finish to protect against light rain and splashes, though we recommend additional weatherproofing spray for heavy wet conditions.
Sizing and Fit Guide
Alex Marie combat boots run true to size for most wearers. We recommend ordering your usual shoe size for the best fit, as the leather will naturally relax and conform to your foot with wear.
The lace-up design allows you to customize the fit around your instep and ankle, while the functional side zipper provides quick access without compromising support. If you typically wear thick socks or have a higher instep, consider sizing up by half a size.
Care and Maintenance
Proper care keeps your Alex Marie combat boots looking their best for years. Wipe down the leather with a damp cloth after each wear to remove dirt and debris, then allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
Apply leather conditioner every 4-6 weeks to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking. For scuffs and scratches, use a matching leather cream or polish to restore the finish. We recommend professional cleaning for stubborn stains.

Your Alex Marie Combat Boot Questions Answered
No, our Alex Marie combat boots are designed for immediate comfort. We use a specialized tanning process that creates supple leather, eliminating the typical break-in period associated with traditional combat boots.
The memory foam footbed and padded collar provide cushioning from your first wear. Most customers report that the boots feel comfortable right out of the box, though the leather will continue to soften and conform to your foot shape with regular use.
Alex Marie combat boots feature water-resistant treated leather that protects against light rain, splashes, and damp conditions. However, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water or worn in heavy downpours.
For additional protection, we recommend applying a waterproofing spray before your first wear and reapplying every few weeks. This extra layer helps repel moisture and prevents water stains on the leather.
If you’re between sizes, we recommend sizing up, especially if you plan to wear thick socks or have a higher instep. The Alex Marie combat boots run true to size for most wearers, but the half size up provides extra room without compromising the fit.
The adjustable lace-up closure allows you to customize the fit around your foot, so a slightly larger size can still feel secure. Remember that the leather will relax slightly with wear, so a snug fit initially will become more comfortable over time.
Clean your Alex Marie combat boots regularly by wiping the leather with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, which can damage the leather.

Yes, Alex Marie combat boots are suitable for mild to moderate winter conditions. The durable rubber lug sole provides excellent traction on slippery surfaces, and the water-resistant leather protects against snow and slush.
For extremely cold climates, we recommend pairing these boots with warm wool or thermal socks. While the leather provides some insulation, these boots are not insulated like dedicated winter boots. They perform best in temperatures above 20°F with appropriate socks.
The shaft circumference of Alex Marie combat boots measures approximately 11-12 inches at the top, depending on size. This standard width accommodates most calf sizes comfortably, and the lace-up design allows for some adjustment.
The shaft height measures approximately 6 inches from the arch, creating a classic combat boot silhouette that pairs well with both tucked-in and cuffed pants. The padded collar ensures comfort around your ankle without restricting movement.
The laces on Alex Marie combat boots are fully functional and allow you to adjust the fit around your instep and ankle. We include durable flat laces that stay tied throughout the day and resist fraying.
The side zipper provides convenient access so you don’t need to unlace the boots completely for each wear. Many customers appreciate this combination—the adjustability of laces with the convenience of a zipper for everyday use.
