FAQs

Are these sandals true to size?

Yes, these sandals are generally true to size for UK shoe sizes, with the added benefit of a wide-fit design for extra comfort. We recommend selecting your usual shoe size.

What does 'wide fit' mean for these sandals?

The 'wide fit' design provides additional width and volume across the footbed, particularly in the toe box and across the arch, offering more comfort for individuals with broader feet compared to standard-fit footwear.

Can I wear these sandals to a wedding?

These sandals are best suited for relaxed evening affairs or casual daytime events rather than formal weddings, depending on the dress code. Their mid block heel and minimalist design lend themselves to a more semi-casual or chic everyday look.

How high is the mid block heel?

Info needed: Specific heel height in inches/cm. The heel is designed to provide a modest and comfortable lift for extended wear.

Are these sandals suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, thanks to their wide-fit design and stable mid block heel, these sandals are designed for comfortable all-day wear, making them a great choice for activities requiring prolonged standing or walking.

What is the best way to clean the faux leather material?

To clean the faux leather, use a soft, damp cloth. For light stains, a mild soap solution can be applied sparingly, then wiped clean with a separate damp cloth. Always air dry away from direct heat.

Are these sandals available in other colors?

This specific variant is available in Blue. For other available colors and sizes, please check the product listings for other Dorothy Perkins Wide Fit Mid Block Heel Sandals variants.

Troubleshooting

Ankle strap feels too tight or too loose.

Adjust the buckle to a different hole on the ankle strap. Ensure you can comfortably slide one finger between the strap and your ankle; this indicates a secure yet comfortable fit.

Sandals feel uncomfortable after prolonged wear.

While designed for comfort, prolonged wear can sometimes cause discomfort. Ensure your feet are not swelling due to heat. Consider taking short breaks or using thin, wide-fit-friendly gel inserts for added cushioning if the discomfort persists.

Faux leather appears scuffed or dull.

Gently clean the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For scuffs, a specialized faux leather conditioner or a tiny dab of petroleum jelly (applied sparingly and buffed off) can sometimes help restore the finish. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.

Slippage or instability while walking.

Check if the ankle strap is securely fastened. If the issue persists, ensure the sandals are the correct size for your feet. If your feet are particularly narrow despite the wide fit, a non-slip insole or heel grip might help create a more snug fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Putting on your Dorothy Perkins Wide Fit Mid Block Heel Sandals is straightforward:

  1. Unbuckle the Ankle Strap: Adjust the buckle to its loosest setting initially.
  2. Slide Your Foot In: Place your foot into the sandal, ensuring your heel sits comfortably on the footbed.
  3. Fasten the Ankle Strap: Wrap the strap around your ankle and secure it using the buckle. Adjust the tightness until it feels secure but not constricting. You should be able to slide one finger comfortably underneath the strap.
  4. Check Fit: Walk a few steps to ensure the sandals feel stable and comfortable.

Compatibility

These sandals are incredibly versatile and compatible with a wide range of attire:

  • Clothing: They pair beautifully with flowy midi dresses, maxi skirts, cropped trousers, denim jeans, shorts, and light jumpsuits.
  • Occasions: Suitable for casual outings, relaxed evening events, garden parties, brunches, and daily wear.
  • Personal Style: Their neutral hue and minimalist design allow them to complement various personal styles, from bohemian chic to classic contemporary.

Care Instructions

Proper care will help extend the life of your faux leather sandals:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down the faux leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth, then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: Allow sandals to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight.
  • Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe bags to protect them from dust and scratches.
  • Avoid Exposure: While durable, excessive exposure to water or extreme temperatures can affect the faux leather. If they get wet, blot dry immediately.
  • Scuffs: Minor scuffs on faux leather can sometimes be gently buffed out with a soft cloth or a specialized faux leather cleaner.
