FAQs
What is the heel height of the Barnsbury Loafers?
The heel height is 1cm (approximately 0.5 inches).
Are these loafers suitable for wide feet?
The loafers have a round toe design which offers some room. However, they are designed for standard width feet. If you have particularly wide feet, they might feel snug initially.
Can I wear these loafers in wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, it is not recommended to wear leather loafers in heavy rain or wet conditions as it can damage the leather.
How do I clean the leather exterior?
Wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth. For dirt or marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for leather. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is made of 100% rubber for durability and traction.
Do these loafers offer arch support?
The loafers feature 100% leather cushioning for comfort. They do not have built-in arch support but can accommodate thin orthotic inserts if needed.
What is the return policy if they don't fit?
Please refer to the retailer's specific return policy for information on exchanges or returns based on fit.
Troubleshooting
Loafers feel tight on first wear
Leather will naturally stretch and mold to your foot. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time. Consider using a shoe stretcher if needed.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or a leather conditioner to the insole or where the parts of the shoe rub together.
Leather scuffs or marks appear
Use a specialized leather cleaner to gently remove marks. For deeper scuffs, a leather repair kit or professional cleaning might be necessary.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
While the rubber sole offers traction, new shoes can sometimes be slick. Lightly scuffing the sole on a rough surface or using a product to add grip to the sole can help.
