FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing, though the leather structure may feel firm initially.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Ovine and calf leather are sensitive to water, which can cause staining or damage.
What is the heel height?
The heels are 1 cm high, featuring a distinct cylindrical shape.
How do I identify genuine MM6 Maison Margiela items?
Authentic pairs feature the signature white horizontal stitch at the heel and specific internal branding.
Can I use inserts or orthotics?
Due to the slim profile and anatomic design, bulky inserts may alter the fit; thin, custom insoles are preferred if necessary.
Troubleshooting
Leather appearing dry or scuffed
Apply a high-quality leather cream or conditioner to restore moisture and buff lightly with a soft cloth.
Stiff fit during first wear
Wear the shoes for short periods inside the house with thin socks to help the leather gradually mold to your foot shape.
Elastic strap feeling too tight
Ensure the shoe is positioned correctly on the heel; the elastic is designed to be snug but should not pinch after natural adjustment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ballerinas last, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Given their leather construction, using a shoe tree when storing can help maintain the shape of the rounded, slightly squared toe.
For cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dust. If the leather needs deeper cleaning, use a professional-grade leather conditioner or cream, testing it first on a hidden area of the shoe. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip the polish and damage the calf leather lining.
