FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they are generally true to size. However, if you are between two sizes, it is recommended to choose the smaller one.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is not recommended. Excessive water can damage the cow leather upper and the interior goat leather lining.

What is the heel height?

The heel height is 1 cm, making it a very low-profile, flat-style shoe.

What materials are used?

The upper is made of cow leather, the interior lining and insole are made of goat leather, and the sole is made of thermoplastic polyurethane.

How do I maintain the leather finish?

Regularly wipe them with a dry cloth and use leather-specific conditioners to keep the hide supple and hydrated.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel slightly tight initially

Genuine leather often requires a brief break-in period. Wear them indoors for short intervals to allow the material to soften and mold to your foot shape.

Visible scuffs on the leather

Use a matching burgundy cream polish or a neutral leather conditioner to buff out superficial scuffs and restore the shine.

Sole grip is slippery on certain surfaces

New TPU soles may have a smooth factory finish. Walking on a slightly rough surface like concrete will naturally scuff the sole and improve traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Aven Rift loafers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Sizing: These shoes are true to size. If you fall between two sizes, opt for the smaller size as the leather will stretch slightly.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe the cow leather upper with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for natural hides.
  3. Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the burgundy finish. Use a shoe tree if possible to help the loafers maintain their shape.
  4. Protection: Consider applying a leather protectant spray to repel dirt and moisture, but always test it on a small, inconspicuous area first.
