FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday office wear?
While they are very stylish, the delicate velvet material is better suited for special occasions rather than daily professional use.
Can I use shoe polish on these?
No. Never use standard shoe cream or wax polish on the velvet upper, as it will mat the fibers and ruin the finish.
How do I choose the right size?
This model follows standard UK sizing. Ensure you select your usual formal shoe size for the best fit.
What is the primary material of the sole?
The sole is crafted from high-quality leather, providing a traditional and refined foundation.
Can these shoes be worn outdoors?
They are best kept to indoor settings. If you must walk outdoors, avoid wet, rainy, or muddy conditions to protect the velvet.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or lint on the velvet
Use a specialized velvet or soft-bristled garment brush to gently lift debris by brushing in the direction of the nap.
Loss of shoe shape
Insert cedar or wood shoe trees immediately after use to help the velvet retain its original silhouette.
Water spots on the material
Dab the area lightly with a clean, dry cloth to absorb moisture and allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes remain in peak condition, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the rich black pigment of the velvet. Always use a shoe tree when not in use to maintain the shape of the upper and help absorb residual moisture. To clean, use a soft-bristled garment brush to gently remove surface dust; always brush in the direction of the velvet nap. Avoid using standard leather polishes on the velvet surface, as these will ruin the texture permanently. For the leather soles, periodic inspection by a cobbler is recommended if you notice significant wear, as soles can be replaced to extend the life of the footwear.
