FAQs

What is the primary material of these flats?

The primary material is high-quality leather for the upper, with a sole made from a combination of leather and rubber.

How should I clean the leather upper?

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a product specifically designed for leather.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The almond toe shape offers a moderate width. While the buckle allows for some adjustability, they may not be ideal for very wide feet without a break-in period.

What does 'Made in Italy' signify for these shoes?

'Made in Italy' indicates that the shoes have been manufactured in Italy, generally implying high standards of design, craftsmanship, and quality materials.

Can I wear these flats in wet weather?

While the rubber sole offers some protection, it is not recommended to wear these leather flats in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the leather's quality and longevity.

Do these flats come with a dust bag?

Yes, the flats include a dust bag and a shoe box for convenient and protective storage.

What is the purpose of the rubber on the sole?

The rubber elements integrated into the sole are intended to enhance durability and provide better traction compared to an all-leather sole.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable

Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to gradually break them in. Consider using a shoe stretcher if specific areas feel too tight.

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a good quality leather conditioner according to product instructions. Ensure the conditioner is suitable for the type of leather.

Buckle closure feels loose

Adjust the buckle to a tighter hole on the strap. If the strap is excessively long, professional shoe repair may be needed for alteration.

Soles are slippery

New leather soles can be slippery. You can gently scuff the sole on a rough surface or apply a sole grip treatment for increased traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility:

Care Instructions:

  • Leather Care: Clean the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Use a specialized leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking.
