FAQs
What is the heel height of these sandals?
The Oasis Narina Leopard Heels feature a high, sturdy block heel measuring between 7-9cm, which is complemented by a comfortable platform design for added stability and reduced perceived height.
Are these sandals comfortable for extended wear?
Yes, the combination of the sturdy block heel and the integrated platform design helps to distribute weight more evenly, contributing to comfort for extended periods on your feet. The adjustable ankle strap also ensures a secure and supportive fit.
What material are these sandals made from?
This specific variant of the Oasis Narina Leopard Heels is crafted from durable faux leather, offering a stylish look with practical maintenance. Please note that other variants in the Narina series may be made from faux suede.
How should I clean my Narina Leopard Heels?
For cleaning the faux leather, gently wipe the surface with a damp, soft cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by a clean damp wipe. Always avoid harsh chemicals and do not immerse the sandals in water.
Can I wear these heels to formal events?
Absolutely. The striking leopard print, elegant knotted detail, and sophisticated design make these heels exceptionally suitable for a range of formal occasions, from garden parties to wedding receptions. Pair them with understated jewelry to allow their design to truly shine.
How do I ensure the best fit?
To achieve the best fit, utilize the adjustable ankle strap with its buckle fastening to customize the fit around your ankle. The strap should be snug enough for support but not overly tight to ensure comfort and prevent rubbing.
Is the leopard print versatile for different outfits?
Yes, while a bold statement, the leopard print can be surprisingly versatile. It pairs beautifully with neutral tones like black, brown, cream, and white, or can create an even bolder look when combined with rich jewel tones. It acts as a statement piece that can elevate both casual and formal attire.
Troubleshooting
Ankle strap feels too tight or too loose
Adjust the buckle on the ankle strap until it provides a secure fit without causing discomfort or restricting circulation. There are multiple holes for adjustment to ensure an optimal fit.
Foot slides forward in the shoe
Ensure the ankle strap is securely fastened. If sliding persists, consider using an anti-slip gel insert or a ball-of-foot cushion to provide extra grip, cushioning, and prevent forward movement.
Experiencing discomfort after extended wear
While designed for comfort with a platform and block heel, high heels can still cause fatigue. Take breaks if possible. If persistent, consider adding gel insoles for additional cushioning or verifying the fit is not too tight.
Scuffs or marks on the faux leather
For light scuffs, gently rub the area with a soft, dry cloth. For more noticeable marks, use a damp cloth with a tiny amount of mild soap, then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth and allow to air dry away from direct heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Adjust Ankle Strap: Before wearing, adjust the buckle on the ankle strap to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. The strap should be secure enough to prevent your foot from sliding but not so tight that it restricts circulation. Multiple holes are provided for precise adjustment.
Break-In Period (Optional): While designed for comfort, wearing them for short periods initially can help your feet adapt to the heel height and new footwear, ensuring maximum comfort on longer outings.
Compatibility
Versatile Styling: These heels are highly versatile, complementing both casual attire such as tailored shorts or skinny jeans with a stylish top, and formal ensembles like cocktail dresses or elegant jumpsuits.
Accessory Pairing: For formal events, consider pairing these statement sandals with understated jewelry to allow the bold leopard print and elegant knotted detail to be the focal point of your outfit. They harmonize exceptionally well with solid colors such as black, brown, cream, or rich jewel tones.
Care
Cleaning Faux Leather: To clean the faux leather material, gently wipe down the surface with a damp, soft cloth. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Storage: Store the sandals in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent material degradation or color fading. Utilizing shoe bags can help protect them from dust and scratches.
Avoid Water Immersion: While durable, avoid fully immersing the sandals in water, as this can adversely affect the faux leather and internal components.
Heel and Sole Inspection: Periodically check the block heel and sole for signs of wear. Addressing minor issues promptly can significantly extend the lifespan of your sandals.
