FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for walking long distances?
While they are comfortable for daily activities and casual wear, they are not athletic shoes and do not feature high-performance arch support or impact absorption for long-distance hiking.
Can these shoes be worn without socks?
Yes, the synthetic insole is designed for comfort, and the style is commonly worn with low-cut or no-show socks, though personal preference applies.
How do I maintain the beige color?
Keep the leather hydrated with a quality leather conditioner and avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals or abrasive surfaces that could strip the color.
Are these shoes waterproof?
They are made of leather and are not inherently waterproof. We recommend applying a water-repellent leather spray to protect them from moisture.
What is the primary material used?
The exterior upper is crafted from genuine leather, while the inner lining and sole consist of high-quality synthetic materials for durability and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feeling too tight initially
Leather will naturally soften and stretch to the shape of your foot with repeated wear. Wear them for short durations indoors to break them in before extended outdoor use.
Surface scuffs on the beige leather
Use a matching beige leather cream or a neutral leather wax to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore the uniform color.
Laces coming undone
Because the laces are decorative and wrap around the heel, ensure they are knotted firmly at the toe area to maintain tension throughout the heel wrap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your KG Kurt Geiger Obi shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes are sized in standard UK adult measurements. Ensure you verify your fit as leather will have a slight break-in period.
- Cleaning: Wipe away surface dust with a dry, soft cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied sparingly with a clean sponge.
- Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the beige leather over time.
- Weather Protection: It is highly recommended to use a leather-specific waterproofing spray to protect the beige finish from unexpected light rain and dirt.
- Maintenance: Use a leather conditioner once every few months to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
