FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the leather is durable, it is not inherently waterproof. We recommend applying a leather protector spray to guard against light rain and moisture.
How do I choose the correct size?
The CAMERON series follows standard UK sizing. We recommend ordering your usual size, keeping in mind the slight stretch that occurs as leather breaks in.
Can I replace the insoles?
The shoes feature a standard construction, but if you require orthotics, the factory insoles may be removable depending on the specific model fit.
What is the best way to clean the black finish?
Use a soft brush to remove debris, then apply a small amount of black shoe cream to maintain the deep color and shine.
Are these suitable for formal events?
Yes, their sleek, minimalist design makes them perfectly appropriate for most formal and business-casual occasions.
Does the leather require a specific conditioner?
Yes, use a conditioner specifically formulated for smooth leather to ensure the material stays hydrated and does not crack over time.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during the first wear
Leather naturally stretches and molds to the foot; wear them for short durations indoors to break them in gradually.
Surface scuffs appearing on the leather
Apply a high-quality black shoe polish or leather conditioner to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore the finish.
Slippage in the heel area
Ensure you are wearing appropriate thickness socks and consider adding a thin leather heel grip if the size is slightly too large.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Since these shoes are crafted from natural leather, they should be treated before their first use to protect against moisture and dirt. Use a neutral leather cream to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking. When cleaning, wipe away surface dust with a soft, dry cloth; for deeper stains, use a damp cloth followed by a leather-safe cleaner. Always store these shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and use shoe trees to maintain their structural integrity and shape during periods of non-use. They are compatible with standard professional and casual socks.
