Your Feet Will Say, Mmmm Mmmmm Good! The Rocco Boot We take luxuriously supple double faced sheepskin and top it with a raccoon fur cuff, making a very eye catching boot that feels like nothing you've experienced before... Line it with soft-as-a-pillow genuine sheepskin and you have the Rocco boot. And yes, it comes in black as well... Eyes won't come off of those boots when you're walking down the street. They look great and make you look like a million... And if that's not enough, the way they feel will make you look even better ('cuz, you'll be smiling!). Don't you deserve a pair? Chestnut... Beautiful color... beautiful feel. We sometimes talk about the 'cloud' effect in wearing sheepskin, but this boot is the pinnacle of 'walking on cloud nine!' The Fur, Feel the Fur... On top of the double faced sheepskin - oh so soft, we add a cute collar of raccoon fur. Nice touch? Absolutely! And yes, it comes in black as well... Hint, hint.... Grab both colors. You'll have double the fun! Rocco in Black Chestnut Tip Toes The Fur.... From Way Up Here A tight fit is the right fit. But not too tight! Breaking In Your Sheepskin Shoes... Breaking in sheepskin takes hours for some, within a day for others, a few days for others still. When broken in your shoe or boot will magically mold to your foot for a perfect fit. Special Sizing Information One of the most important things to understand in buying and wearing sheepskin footwear is sizing. Sheepskin footwear s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-s over a very short time period and molds itself to your foot. This is very different than leather or canvas or shoes of other materials. Sheepskin footwear will stretch about 1/2 a size. A great fit consists of these points: A brand new slipper, shoe or boot should have a slightly tight fit. It should NOT be painful. But it should be slightly uncomfortable. The front of the shoe should touch the tip of your big toe or be very near to the front. But it should not “scrunch” your toe.. So, when trying on a new pair of sheepskin slippers, shoes or boots, don't worry if they feel a bit "too snug." This is a correct fit. If they are painful, that’s not good. They're too small. How to Get the Right Fit When your shoes arrive, try them on - ideally in your bare feet. Do this on a clean surface, such as a carpet or clean floor. See where your big toe is - it should be touching or very close to the front of the shoe. In non-sheepskin shoes, this would be too tight. This is the correct fit for a new sheepskin shoe. In trying on scuffs or open back shoes, your heel should be at the very, very end of the back of the shoe. Over a few days, your foot will move 1/4 to 1/2 an inch into the slipper. If the shoe is uncomfortable to wear for long periods, break them in gradually - a few hours at a time, until they mold to your foot. All this should be no big deal, but you should be aware of this as it's different than ordinary footwear. Remember, sheepskin fur will compress and "open up" the shoe. Breaking boots will take a bit longer than shoes. When they mold to your foot, they feel great - but it can take a bit more time than you're used to.
