FAQs
How should I determine my size?
Our shoes generally run true to size. However, if you are between sizes, we recommend choosing the smaller size for the best fit.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is approximately 2cm (or 1 inch).
Are these loafers suitable for wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Using a water-repellent spray can offer some protection.
Can I wear these loafers without socks?
Yes, the 100% leather lining and cushioning make them comfortable for sockless wear.
How do I clean the silver buckle?
Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the buckle. For stubborn tarnish, a silver polishing cloth can be used gently, avoiding contact with the leather.
What is the material of the sole?
The sole is made of 100% rubber for durability and traction.
Where are these loafers made?
These loafers are made in Portugal.
Troubleshooting
Loafers feel tight or uncomfortable
Wear the loafers for short periods initially to allow the leather to mold to your foot. Consider using a shoe stretcher if persistent tightness occurs. Ensure you followed the sizing advice (ordering down if between sizes).
Scuffs or scratches on the leather
For minor scuffs, try buffing gently with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, use a matching color leather polish or cream to conceal the damage.
Leather appears dry or dull
Apply a quality leather conditioner and buff gently to restore shine and moisture. Regular conditioning is key to preventing this.
Slipping heel
This can sometimes occur if the shoe is too large or if the heel counter is not yet broken in. Try an adhesive heel grip insert for a more secure fit.
