FAQs

What is the heel height of the Ruba platform heels?

The Linzi Ruba platform heels feature an 11cm (approximately 4.3 inches) block heel.

Are these heels suitable for walking long distances?

While the platform and block heel offer more stability and comfort than a stiletto, the 11cm height is significant. They are best suited for events where you will be standing or walking shorter distances, rather than for extended periods of walking.

How do I clean the black suede material?

Gently brush with a suede brush to maintain the nap. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, always testing on a small, hidden area first. Avoid using water.

Can I wear these heels in wet weather?

It is strongly advised against wearing suede shoes in wet conditions, as water can stain and damage the material. Using a suede protector spray can offer some protection, but complete waterproofing is not achievable.

What kind of outfits do these heels pair well with?

These heels are versatile for evening wear and can be paired with dresses, skirts, tailored trousers, or even smart jeans for a night out. They are designed to be a statement piece for a variety of outfits.

Is the knotted front strap adjustable?

The knotted front strap is a design feature and is not adjustable. It is intended to provide a secure fit as part of the shoe's construction.

Troubleshooting

Heels feel tight or uncomfortable

Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in. Consider using a shoe stretcher or thicker socks with a hairdryer (on a cool setting) to gently expand tight areas. Ensure the size is correct.

Suede looks scuffed or dirty

Use a clean, dry suede brush to gently remove surface dirt and restore the nap. For more stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.

Straps feel too loose or too tight

The knotted strap is primarily decorative and offers minimal adjustability. If the fit is an issue, consider adding a gel heel grip or a forefoot cushion for better stability and comfort. Ensure the correct size has been purchased.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant and eye-catching design

  • Suitable for formal events and nights out
  • Luxurious suede finish
  • Secure fit with the knotted strap

Cons

  • High heel height may not be suitable for all-day wear or those new to heels
  • Suede requires careful maintenance and protection from moisture

  • May require a breaking-in period for optimal comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These heels require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Their compatibility lies primarily with adult fashion for women.

Care Instructions:

  • Suede Protection: Use a suede protector spray before first wear to guard against stains and water damage. Reapply periodically.
  • Cleaning: Brush suede gently with a suede brush to remove surface dirt and restore nap. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees or stuffing to help maintain their shape. Avoid storing in plastic bags, as suede needs to breathe.
  • Weather: Avoid wearing in wet or adverse weather conditions to preserve the material.
