FAQs

What is the heel height of the Claire Block Heel sandals?

These sandals feature a comfortable and stable block heel with an approximate height of 3.8 inches (9.5 cm).

Are these sandals suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, thanks to their stable block heel and comfortable design, they are suitable for all-day wear. However, individual comfort may vary, and for some, the heel height might require occasional breaks during very long periods of standing or walking.

How should I clean the suede material of these sandals?

For basic cleaning, use a dedicated suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be effective. Always avoid water and harsh chemicals; use specialized suede cleaning products if necessary, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Can I wear these sandals in rainy weather?

It is not recommended to wear these suede sandals in rain or wet conditions, as water can damage the suede and cause staining. Applying a suede protector spray can offer some resistance but will not make them waterproof.

What kind of closure do these sandals have?

The Claire Block Heel sandals feature an adjustable side buckle closure, allowing you to customize the fit around your ankle for security and comfort.

Are these sandals true to size?

While generally true to standard UK sizing, fit can vary. The adjustable buckle allows for some personalization. We recommend referring to any available sizing charts or customer reviews for specific guidance.

Troubleshooting

The ankle strap feels too tight or too loose.

Adjust the side buckle to a different hole. The strap should be snug enough to secure your foot without pinching, but loose enough to allow comfortable movement.

My feet are sliding forward in the sandal.

Ensure the ankle strap is securely fastened. If sliding persists, consider using an anti-slip ball-of-foot cushion or an insole designed to provide extra grip and prevent forward movement.

The suede material looks dull, flattened, or has minor scuffs.

Gently brush the affected area with a suede brush, always brushing in the same direction, to restore the nap and remove superficial marks. For more defined scuffs, a suede eraser can be used.

The sandals feel uncomfortable after extended wear.

While designed for comfort, continuous wear with any heel can lead to foot fatigue. Ensure the adjustable buckle is not too tight. You may consider adding thin gel insoles for extra cushioning, especially under the ball of the foot, or taking short breaks if wearing them for prolonged periods.

Reapply regularly according to the product's instructions.- Cleaning Dry Dirt: For light dirt or scuffs, use a suede brush to gently brush the affected area in one direction to lift the nap and remove debris. For more stubborn marks, a specialized suede eraser can be used.- Addressing Stains: For liquid spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth; do not rub. Allow the area to air dry naturally, then gently brush with a suede brush. For tougher stains, consider a professional suede cleaning product, always testing on an inconspicuous area first.- Storage: Store your sandals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. To help maintain their shape, you can stuff the toes with acid-free tissue paper or use shoe trees.

If they do get wet, allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat, then gently brush.
