FAQs
Are these loafers suitable for wide feet?
The Barnsbury Loafer is designed with a standard fit. If you have wider feet, they may feel snug initially. Consider trying a half size up or breaking them in thoroughly.
How do I clean my suede loafers?
Use a specialized suede brush for general cleaning and a suede eraser for stains. Always protect suede with a water and stain repellent spray, and avoid wearing in wet conditions.
Can I wear these loafers in the rain?
It is not recommended to wear suede loafers in heavy rain or wet conditions, as water can stain and damage the suede. The rubber sole offers some traction, but the material is sensitive to moisture.
What is the heel height of the Barnsbury Loafer?
The Barnsbury Loafer features a low-stacked heel, offering a subtle lift without significant height.
How should I store these loafers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in a dust bag or their original box. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Does the signature logo affect comfort?
The signature logo is typically a subtle embellishment and is designed not to interfere with the comfort or fit of the loafer.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or has minor scuffs.
Use a suede brush to gently buff the surface and restore the nap. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be applied.
Loafers feel tight or uncomfortable.
Suede can stretch slightly over time. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your feet. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain shape and potentially widen the fit slightly.
Water spots on suede.
Allow the loafers to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the texture. Applying a suede protector beforehand can help prevent such marks.
