FAQs
What is the heel height of these pumps?
The heel height is approximately 8 cm.
What material are the pumps made of?
The pumps are crafted from luxurious leather, with a leather lining and a leather and rubber sole.
How do I clean and care for the leather?
Wipe the leather with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Use a leather protector spray periodically and store in the provided dust bag.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The pointed toe design might be less accommodating for very wide feet. It is recommended to try them on or consider the fit carefully if you have wider feet.
What is included with the purchase?
The pumps come with a dust bag and a shoe box for storage and protection.
Can the slingback strap be removed?
No, the slingback strap is an integral part of the shoe's design and cannot be removed.
Are these pumps good for all-day wear?
While designed for elegance, the 8 cm heel height may make them more suitable for occasions rather than extended periods of standing or walking for some individuals.
Troubleshooting
Buckle is stiff or difficult to fasten.
Gently work the buckle back and forth. If persistent, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the buckle mechanism, avoiding contact with the leather.
Leather scuffs or marks appear.
For minor scuffs, try a good quality leather conditioner or a matching color polish. For deeper marks, professional leather repair may be necessary.
Slingback strap feels loose after adjustment.
Ensure the buckle is securely fastened through the correct hole. If the strap is too long even on the tightest setting, consider consulting a cobbler for potential adjustments.
Slight discomfort in the pointed toe.
Wear for short periods initially to allow the leather to mold to your foot. Ensure the correct size is selected. Professional shoe stretchers can offer minor relief if needed.
