FAQs

What is the primary material of this shoe?

The primary material is premium vintage suede, with a leather lining and collar.

Are these shoes waterproof?

These shoes are not waterproof. Suede is sensitive to excessive moisture, and while the rubber outsole offers some protection, they are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions.

How should I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush for regular cleaning and a specialized suede cleaner for stains. Always test cleaners on a small, inconspicuous area first and allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

What does 'Handsewn Construction' mean?

Handsewn construction refers to a traditional method where the upper part of the shoe is sewn to the sole by hand. This indicates a high level of craftsmanship and contributes to the shoe's durability and flexibility.

What is the benefit of the padded leather collar?

The padded leather collar provides extra cushioning and support around the ankle, enhancing comfort during extended wear.

What does it mean that this product supports the Leather Working Group?

Purchasing this product supports responsible manufacturing of leather. The Leather Working Group promotes sustainable and environmentally responsible leather production practices.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these suede shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions, as moisture can damage the suede and cause discoloration. They are best for dry weather.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a dedicated suede brush to lift dirt. For tougher stains, apply a suede cleaner sparingly with a soft cloth and follow the product's instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to dry naturally away from direct heat.

Laces are difficult to adjust or fraying.

Ensure rawhide laces are fully dry before tightening. If laces are fraying, they may need to be replaced. You can purchase replacement rawhide or suitable leather laces.

Shoes feel slightly stiff initially.

This is common with new leather and suede. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your feet. The padded leather collar and lining will soften with wear.

Discoloration due to water exposure.

Suede can be sensitive to water. If minor water spots occur, let the shoe dry naturally. For significant water damage, consult a professional shoe repair service specializing in suede care. Consider using a suede protectant spray (test first) to add a layer of resistance.
