FAQs
What is the heel height of the Livvy II?
The Livvy II has a heel height of 25mm.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the Livvy II is designed with a wide fit to provide extra comfort and accommodate a broader range of foot shapes.
How do I clean the green nubuck material?
For green nubuck, use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, a specialized nubuck cleaner can be used sparingly, following the manufacturer's instructions. Always allow to air dry.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the leather or nubuck may offer some resistance, these pumps are not waterproof and are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.
What type of fastening do these shoes have?
The Livvy II features a slip-on fastening, meaning there are no laces or buckles, allowing for easy on and off.
What are the different material options for the Livvy II?
The Livvy II is available in refined velvet nubuck or a silver leather option, with punch perforation detailing for breathability.
Are these shoes good for standing for long periods?
The combination of lightweight construction, a wide fit, and a low heel height makes them comfortable for extended wear, including standing for moderate periods.
Troubleshooting
Pumps feel too tight initially.
As the Livvy II is designed with a wide fit and soft materials, they should mold to your foot over time. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in. Ensure you are selecting the correct size; refer to sizing charts if unsure.
Creasing on nubuck or leather.
Some natural creasing is normal with wear, especially in softer materials. For nubuck, a suede brush can help to lift the nap. For leather, a leather conditioner can help maintain suppleness and minimize the appearance of creases. Avoid over-flexing the shoe when not wearing it.
Slight color transfer from lining.
This can occasionally happen with new textile linings, especially in humid conditions. Allow the shoes to air dry completely before wearing, and consider using a fabric protector spray designed for footwear, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.
The PU sole offers good durability but may have reduced grip on very smooth or wet surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. For increased traction, consider consulting a cobbler about adding thin rubber sole protectors.

Care:

- Leather: Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth. For scuffs or to maintain shine, use a good quality leather conditioner or polish suitable for the specific leather type.
- Textile Lining: If the lining becomes soiled, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow to air dry completely.
