Product Information
Full details
The Dune London Location Sandals are designed for women seeking a blend of sophisticated style and unparalleled comfort for the warmer months. Their key win lies in the exceptional comfort provided by a padded leather insole and soft, unlined leather straps, making them ideal for extended wear. While offering significant comfort and a fashionable flatform design, their approximate 6 cm heel height might be a consideration for those preferring completely flat footwear. These sandals are a summer wardrobe essential, focusing on a comfortable fit and quality leather construction.

FAQs
What is the heel height of the Dune London Location Sandals?
The sandals feature an approximate 6 cm (about 2.4 inches) flatform heel.
What materials are the sandals made from?
The upper, lining, and sock are made from leather. The sole is made from 'other materials', designed for durability.
Are these sandals comfortable for all-day wear?
Yes, the Dune London Location Sandals are designed for comfort. They feature a padded leather insole and soft, unlined leather straps intended to provide comfort for extended periods.
How should I clean my leather sandals?
Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For deeper cleaning, use a leather-specific cleaner and condition regularly to keep the leather supple. Allow them to air dry if they get wet.
Are these sandals true to size?
Dune London typically follows standard UK sizing. We recommend purchasing your usual shoe size. If you are between sizes, it's often best to try the next half size up or down depending on your preference for fit.
Can I wear these sandals in the rain?
While minor splashes are fine, it is not recommended to expose leather sandals to heavy rain or prolonged wet conditions, as water can damage the leather and affect the sandal's construction. Always allow them to air dry if they get wet.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel tight or rub initially
Leather straps may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house. The soft, unlined leather is designed to conform to your foot over time. You can also try wearing thin socks during the break-in period.
Leather appears dull or dry
Apply a good quality leather conditioner or moisturizer to restore the leather's natural luster and suppleness. Follow the product instructions for application and buffing.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
The 'other materials' sole provides general traction. If excessive slipping occurs, inspect the sole for wear. If severely worn, consult a cobbler for potential sole replacement or add non-slip pads.
Foot odor
Ensure your feet are clean before wearing. Allow sandals to air out between wears. You can use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the footbed overnight to absorb odors.

Care Instructions
To maintain the quality and longevity of your leather sandals, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a leather protector spray to guard against stains and moisture.
- Cleaning Leather: For light dirt or dust, gently wipe the leather upper, lining, and sock with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for finished leather. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: If the sandals get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (like radiators or sunlight) which can cause the leather to crack or stiffen.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather soft and supple, preventing drying and cracking. Frequency depends on wear.
- Sole Care: Wipe the 'other materials' sole with a damp cloth as needed. Check for embedded debris.
- Storage: Store sandals in a cool, dry place, ideally in a dust bag or their original box, away from direct sunlight. Avoid crushing them to maintain their shape.
- Avoid Excessive Water: While minor splashes are fine, prolonged exposure to water (e.g., heavy rain, puddles) should be avoided as it can damage the leather and affect the sole adhesion.
