FAQs
Are these pumps suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the 55 mm heel height is specifically designed to provide stability and support, making them more comfortable than higher, thinner heels for long durations.
How do I ensure I choose the right size?
These shoes follow standard sizing. We recommend checking the size guide provided for your region, as leather shoes will typically stretch and form to your foot slightly after the first few wears.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While the rubber sole offers some grip, it is best to avoid heavy rain as the leather upper and varnished heel finish can be damaged by prolonged exposure to moisture.
What is the best way to clean the logo hardware?
Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth to gently buff the metal buckle and logo hardware to maintain their shine without using harsh chemicals.
Do I need a shoe tree for these?
Using a cedar or soft-form shoe tree is highly recommended to help the shoes retain their shape and absorb moisture after a long day of wear.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff after storage
Gently massage the leather with a high-quality leather conditioner to restore suppleness.
Scuffs appearing on the varnished heel
Use a soft cloth with a tiny amount of mild soap and water to gently wipe the area; avoid abrasive tools that could strip the varnish.
Slipping on very smooth surfaces
While the rubber sole provides traction, ensure the soles are clean and free of oils or wax that may have been picked up from walking surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are high-quality leather goods, proper care is essential to extend their lifespan.
- Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather fading or cracking.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth after each wear to remove dust. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner applied sparingly.
- Sole Maintenance: The rubber sole is durable but should be checked periodically for debris stuck in the tread.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray safe for fine goods to provide a barrier against water and minor spills.
- Fit: Ensure you are wearing the correct size, as leather will naturally conform to your foot shape over time; avoid wearing them in wet, muddy conditions to preserve the varnished heel finish.
