FAQs

Are these pumps suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the kitten heel is designed for comfort, making them a better choice for extended wear compared to higher-stiletto alternatives.

What material are the Alina Flex pumps made from?

These shoes are constructed from high-quality leather.

Do these shoes run true to size?

They are designed to standard UK sizing. If you have wider feet, you may find the pointed-toe silhouette requires choosing a slightly larger size.

How should I clean my leather pumps?

Use a soft, dry cloth for daily maintenance and a dedicated leather cleaner for more thorough cleaning.

Can these be worn in rainy weather?

It is not recommended to submerge leather shoes in water. Use a leather protectant spray to provide a barrier, but avoid heavy rain.

What occasions are these pumps best for?

They are ideal for professional office environments, dinner dates, and formal social events due to their sleek and timeless design.

Troubleshooting

The leather feels stiff during the first wear.

Leather requires a break-in period. Wear them for short durations indoors with socks to help gently stretch the material.

Minor scuffs appearing on the surface.

Use a leather conditioner or cream that matches the brown finish to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore moisture.

Shoes feel slightly tight in the toe area.

Avoid wearing thick socks. If the tightness persists, a professional cobbler can use a shoe stretcher to provide additional room.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Alina Flex pumps stay in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather fading or cracking.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove dust. For stains, use a specialized leather cleaner approved for high-end footwear.
  3. Protection: Consider applying a leather protectant spray to repel moisture and light scuffs before wearing them outside for the first time.
  4. Fitment: These pumps are sized in standard UK adult measurements. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to consider your preference for a snug versus a relaxed fit, keeping the pointed-toe structure in mind.
  5. Maintenance: Periodically check the heel tips to ensure they have not worn down to the metal, which can damage floors and make walking unstable.
