FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for office wear?
Yes, the refined silhouette and block heel make them an excellent choice for a professional yet comfortable office environment.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Suede is highly absorbent and can be permanently damaged by water and mud.
How should I store them?
Store them in a breathable bag or a dry closet, away from direct sunlight, which can fade the brown suede color.
Do these pumps run true to size?
They generally follow standard UK sizing; however, since they are made of soft suede, they tend to mold to the foot over time.
What is the best way to clean the bow?
Use a very soft, dry cloth to gently dab any dirt off the bow detail. Do not submerge the bow or the shoe in water.
Troubleshooting
Water spots on suede
Allow the shoe to dry naturally away from heat sources, then use a suede eraser or brush to buff out the mark.
Shoes feel too snug
Suede will naturally stretch slightly with wear. If necessary, use a shoe stretcher spray and a wooden shoe tree to gently expand the fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As these pumps are made from genuine suede, proper maintenance is essential for longevity. Before wearing them for the first time, apply a suede-specific protective spray to repel moisture and dirt. If the shoes become dusty, use a soft suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material. Avoid direct exposure to rain or mud. For storage, keep the shoes in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees or stuffing to maintain their rounded shape when not in use.
