FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally align with standard adult sizing, though the slim profile may feel snug initially.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
These are primarily fashion-oriented lifestyle shoes and are not designed for heavy-duty gym performance or running.
How do I maintain the leather?
Keep it clean with a damp cloth and apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple.
Is the sole flexible?
The sole is designed for a balance of flexibility and structure, providing a natural range of motion while maintaining grip.
Are they waterproof?
The leather construction provides some resistance to light moisture, but they are not fully waterproof.
Troubleshooting
Buckle feels loose over time
Check the elastic strap for signs of wear and ensure the buckle is correctly threaded and snapped closed.
Scuff marks on the animal pattern
Use a specialized leather cleaner compatible with patterned finishes to gently buff out scuffs without damaging the texture.
Shoe feels too tight after walking
Loosen the buckle closure to provide more room, or wear thinner socks to accommodate foot swelling throughout the day.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the elastic strap is snug but not restrictive. Use the buckle to adjust the tension so the shoe remains secure on your heel while walking.
- Cleaning: Use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe down the leather surface. Do not submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the leather and the adhesive.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shape of the round toe.
- Compatibility: These shoes pair best with casual trousers, skirts, or jeans, fitting perfectly into an athleisure-focused wardrobe.
