FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Nellie Flex features a standard fit. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find the leather stretches slightly over time, but the shoe is designed for a slim, sleek silhouette.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended to submerge or expose leather shoes to heavy rain, as water can damage the texture and color of the material.
How do I maintain the studs and buckle?
Wipe the hardware gently with a soft, lint-free cloth to maintain its shine. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could scratch the metallic finish.
Are these flats cushioned?
The Nellie Flex is designed for comfort, providing a smooth interior that acts as a modern, flexible alternative to classic, rigid ballet flats.
Does the leather stretch significantly?
High-quality leather will naturally soften and mold to your foot with wear, but it will not stretch out of shape significantly if properly cared for.
Troubleshooting
The leather feels stiff upon first wear.
This is common with high-quality leather. Wear them for short periods around the house to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot shape.
Minor scuffs appearing on the leather surface.
Use a neutral leather cream or a specialized leather cleaner to buff out scuffs and restore the original finish.
Buckle feels loose.
Check the buckle pin and ensure it is fully engaged in the strap hole. If necessary, have a professional cobbler adjust the tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nellie Flex flats remain in pristine condition, proper care is essential. As these are leather shoes, avoid prolonged exposure to harsh weather conditions or heavy moisture.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dust. For minor scuffs, a leather conditioner or appropriate leather cream can help restore the sheen.
- Storage: Keep your flats in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape over time.
- Compatibility: These flats are true to the UK standard sizing provided. Due to the leather material, expect a slight 'giving' sensation as the shoe molds to your foot over the first few wears.
