FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, these are generally true to UK size standards; however, if you are between sizes, we recommend considering the fit of the elasticated strap.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No. Due to the delicate satin upper and leather sole, you should never submerge or machine wash these shoes.
What is the signature white stitch on the back?
The white stitch is a signature design element of the MM6 Maison Margiela brand, meant to represent a discreet, identifiable mark for those familiar with the line.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The structure is relatively standard, but the elastic strap offers some flexibility. If you have very wide feet, you may prefer trying them on with thin hosiery for a smoother fit.
Does the cylindrical heel provide good stability?
Yes, the cylindrical shape offers more surface area and stability than a traditional stiletto or thin kitten heel.
Troubleshooting
Satin fabric appears dull or dusty
Gently buff the surface with a soft, clean microfiber cloth in the direction of the fabric grain.
Elastic strap feels too tight during the first few wears
The strap is designed to be form-fitting. Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the elastic to gently relax to your foot shape.
Leather sole showing premature signs of wear
Consult a professional cobbler to add a non-slip rubber grip sole protector.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these shoes are constructed with a delicate satin upper, avoid wearing them in harsh weather conditions or areas with sharp debris that could pull the fibers. To maintain the appearance, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust regularly. For internal hygiene, the cotton lining can be gently wiped with a damp cloth if necessary; ensure the shoe is completely air-dried away from direct heat sources. Since these feature a leather sole, they are intended primarily for indoor or dry-pavement walking. To prolong the life of the leather sole, consider having a thin rubber protective layer professionally applied by a cobbler if you plan to walk on concrete surfaces frequently.
