FAQs

Are the shoes waterproof?

The Base London Strand Derby Shoes are made from suede and are not inherently waterproof. While a suede protector spray can offer some resistance to moisture and stains, they are best worn in dry or mildly damp conditions.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always test cleaning products on a small, hidden area first.

What is the purpose of the Ortholite insole?

The Ortholite insole provides enhanced cushioning, breathability, and moisture management, contributing to all-day comfort and reducing foot fatigue.

Can these shoes be worn for formal events?

Yes, their classic derby design and refined suede finish make them suitable for many smart-casual and semi-formal occasions, though they may not be formal enough for the most stringent black-tie events.

What is the heel height?

The heel height is approximately 25mm (or 1 inch).

What material is the sole made of?

The sole is made of a synthetic material, designed for durability and a clean profile.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dry or faded

Use a suede brush to revive the nap. Apply a suede conditioner or appropriate colored restorer if necessary.

Stains on suede

For fresh stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Use a suede eraser for minor marks or a specialized suede cleaner for tougher stains, following product instructions carefully.

Shoe shape is lost

Utilize shoe trees made of cedar wood to help maintain the shoe's shape when not in use and absorb moisture.

Laces becoming worn

Replace worn laces with standard flat shoelaces of a similar color or length.
