Description
A wool-lined lace up boot to sit alongside our classic Odense style, Skanderborg is here to take you through winter. As comfortable as a pair of slippers, made for outdoor wear, you can't go wrong with Skanderborg.
We like to put our best foot forward, but are the shoes we wear the best for our feet?
Good shoes (in our books) are defined by their shape, and specifically, the shape of the toe box. A wider toe box allows your feet to move naturally and breathe and accommodates the natural swelling that occurs to our feet throughout the day.
The health benefits of wider footwear can be felt all over your body. Initially, your toes will thank you, for not cramping or constricting them in footwear that confines your feet and in-turn, your movement.
Your lower back, legs, hips, and posture will also appreciate the space you give your toes. Wider footwear encourages total body movement, ensuring your muscles stay active and work harmoniously to support you.
Move more freely and choose footwear with wider toe boxes; your body will thank you for it.
Choosing the right size
Before or during ordering your shoes, we recommend you measure the length of your feet to find the right size. Our chart may help you but does not guarantee that the shoes fit.
To ascertain your measurement, stand on a ruler against a wall. Your measurement should include the entire length of your foot, measured from heel to longest toe.
Please measure both feet, and choose your size based on the largest measurement.
If your foot length equals the maximum on any of the measurements, please choose the next size up.
Boots with wool lining might need to be ordered in the next size up to accommodate the wool.
If you are in-between sizes, we offer Wool Insoles that may help with half-sizes.
As your Duckfeet break in, the leather will soften and stretch in the width if needed; please keep this in mind when sizing.

Caring for your leather Leather is skin, and skin needs care. We recommend that you apply a thin layer of leather conditioner or shoe cream at regular intervals. Don’t use too much at one time. It’s better to use a little less a bit more often. Let the shoe cream sit a few minutes and polish afterwards with a soft cloth. Use a shoehorn when you put your shoes on – they are easier to get on and the back will not be destroyed. Untie or unzip the shoes or boots completely when you remove them – so they are easier to pull off. It’s better for the shoes than trampling on them! If you care for your shoes regularly, you will enjoy them longer. Your shoes will be grateful for it. |
 |
If your shoes get wet Store your shoes in a dry and airy place. If your shoes become wet, fill them with crumpled newspaper and let them air-dry. When they are completely dried, you can again apply leather conditioner or shoe cream. Leather shoes should not be dried on a radiator – the leather becomes dried out and porous. If the leather gets water stains, take a cloth and make the whole shoe slightly damp. Treat the leather afterwards as described above. It is best to change your shoes daily. Give your Duckfeet a day’s rest, so they can release the foot’s moisture and dry thoroughly. |
 |
If your shoe get dirty If the shoes get dirty, clean them with a damp cloth. Let the shoes dry thoroughly and treat the leather again with shoe cream or leather conditioner. Be attentive to edges and seams, which should also be treated to maintain the leather and protect your shoes against water. |

Caring for crepe rubber Crepe rubber soles can become hard at low temperatures, but this can be avoided by storing the shoes at a temperature between 20-25C. If the soles become hard, you can place the shoes on a warm radiator, until the crepe rubber is soft again. Avoid contact with solvents. The rubber cannot tolerate it and can dissolve. |
