FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The D'Orsay silhouette is generally accommodating due to the open-side cut, but they are built to a standard width.
What is the actual heel height?
The shoe features a subtle 6mm mini wedge, offering minimal elevation.
Can I replace the insoles?
The CloudBound insoles are designed as an integrated part of the shoe construction for maximum comfort and stability.
Are these shoes made of real leather?
The exterior is crafted from leather, while the wedge is finished with a durable faux leather wrap.
How do I clean the TPR outsole?
You can clean the outsole by wiping it with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is recommended to avoid heavy rain as the leather upper may become damaged or discolored when soaked.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels slightly tight initially
Leather typically stretches slightly with wear. Try wearing them around the house with socks for short periods to break in the material.
Slipping at the heel while walking
Consider using thin adhesive heel grips to provide a snugger fit if the open-side design causes movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As these are slip-on flats, no assembly is required; simply slide your foot into the opening. To ensure the longest lifespan for your Gemma D'Orsay flats, keep the leather clean by wiping them with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh industrial cleaners on the faux leather-wrapped wedge. If they become wet, allow them to air dry slowly away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from stiffening or cracking.
