FAQs

Are these shoes truly unisex?

Yes, the design is intended for both men and women. However, due to variations in foot shape, it's crucial to check the UK sizing and consider trying them on or consulting size charts to ensure a proper fit for your specific foot.

How do I clean the suede and leather parts?

For suede, use a dedicated suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For leather accents, use a damp cloth or a leather cleaner. We recommend using protective sprays designed for both materials to guard against stains and water damage.

What is the purpose of the removable footbed?

The removable footbed enhances comfort by providing cushioning. It also allows for easy cleaning or the insertion of custom orthotics if needed, offering personalized support.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The rubber outsole offers some grip and durability, but the leather and suede upper is not inherently waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended without appropriate protective treatments.

What is the heel height?

The shoes have a heel height of 3cm, designed to provide a comfortable lift suitable for everyday wear.

Where are these shoes made?

Kleman shoes, including the Major VP Oak 2, are made in France, reflecting the brand's commitment to European craftsmanship.

What is the primary material composition?

The shoes are primarily constructed from 85% suede split cowhide and 15% cowhide leather, with a durable rubber outsole.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Wear the shoes with appropriate socks. The leather may stretch slightly with wear. Consider using the shoes for short periods initially to break them in.

Suede texture appears rough or uneven

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. Brush in one direction consistently. Address any spots with a specialized suede cleaner if necessary.

Leather shows minor scuffs

For light scuffs, a leather conditioner or cream can often buff them out. For deeper scuffs, a colored shoe cream matching the cognac shade may be needed.

Soles are dirty

Wipe the rubber soles with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean damp cloth.
