FAQs
Are these loafers suitable for wide feet?
Yes, these loafers are designed with a 'Wide' width fitting to accommodate wider feet comfortably.
Can I replace the footbed with my own insoles?
Yes, the loafers feature a recycled removable footbed, allowing you to insert your own custom insoles or orthotics if needed.
How do I clean and maintain the suede material?
Use a suede brush for general cleaning and to maintain the nap. Apply a suede protector spray for protection and use a suede eraser for stains. Always allow suede to air dry away from heat.
What is the heel height of these loafers?
The heel height is approximately 3cm.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is made of a synthetic TR rubber, which provides excellent grip.
Are these loafers waterproof?
No, suede is not inherently waterproof. It is recommended to use a suede protector spray to offer some resistance to water and stains.
What occasions are these loafers best suited for?
These loafers are versatile and suitable for everyday wear, casual outings, and smart-casual events. They can be dressed up or down depending on the outfit.
Troubleshooting
Suede colour appears uneven after brushing.
Ensure you are using a dedicated suede brush and brushing in a consistent direction. Lightly dampen the brush if needed for stubborn marks, then allow to dry before brushing again.
Shoes feel too tight after wearing for a while.
The elasticated gussets are designed to stretch slightly. If they remain too tight, consider removing the recycled insole for a little more room, or consult a shoe repair specialist for stretching options.
Scuff marks on the suede.
Attempt to gently buff out minor scuff marks with a suede eraser. For deeper marks, a suede brush may help lift the nap and disguise the damage. Professional cleaning might be required for significant marks.
Slipping on smooth surfaces.
The TR rubber sole is designed for grip. If you experience excessive slipping, ensure the sole is clean. If the issue persists, consider a professional resoling with a different rubber compound, though this is rarely necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. Ensure your size is correct before wearing. If you have custom orthotics, remove the existing recycled footbed to insert yours.
Compatibility: Designed for adult women with a wide width fitting. Suitable for various occasions from casual to smart-casual.
Care:
- Cleaning Suede: Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt and to restore the nap. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be used. Always brush in the same direction.
- Protection: Apply a suede protector spray to guard against water and stains. Reapply periodically, especially after cleaning.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to help them retain their shape and allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box to protect the suede.
