How high is the stiletto heel?

Is the waist strap adjustable?

How should I clean the silk and viscose upper?
Spot clean gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking. Professional dry cleaning is recommended for thorough cleaning.
Can I wear these for extended periods of standing?
Due to the 10.5 cm stiletto heel, they are best suited for moderate wear. For extended standing, consider the heel height and stability on your intended surface.
What does the glossy tone-on-tone finish refer to?
This refers to a subtle sheen on the main material that matches the primary black color, creating a sophisticated and understated luxurious appearance.
Troubleshooting
Heel feels unstable on certain surfaces.
Be cautious when walking on uneven terrain like cobblestones or gravel. Ensure the heel is placed firmly on stable ground before applying weight. Consider professional heel protectors for added grip.
Velvet detailing appears flattened or matted.
Use a soft brush (like a suede brush) to gently lift the nap of the velvet. Brush in the direction of the pile.
Material feels stiff or uncomfortable.
Ensure the correct size is being worn. For initial wear, try them on indoors on a clean surface to allow them to mold slightly to your feet. Wear for short periods initially.
