What is the significance of the UK size 3.5?
UK size 3.5 is a specific adult female foot size. It's important to confirm this is your correct size for a proper fit.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While leather offers some protection, prolonged exposure to excessive moisture is not recommended. Using a leather protectant spray can help. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Leather can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them for short periods initially. If still uncomfortable, consider a shoe stretcher or professional shoe fitting advice.
Scuffs or scratches on leather
Use a black shoe polish or cream specifically for leather to buff out minor scuffs. For deeper scratches, consult a professional cobbler.
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try applying talcum powder under the insole or to the tongue area. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.
