FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Classic Loafer generally offers a standard width fit. While the leather can conform slightly over time, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them snug. It is recommended to try them on if possible.
How do I maintain the shine of the leather?
Regular cleaning with a damp cloth and periodic application of a leather conditioner and polish will help maintain the leather's appearance and shine.
Can I wear these loafers in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole provides some traction, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain and to properly care for them afterwards if they do get wet.
What is the intended use for these loafers?
These loafers are designed for versatile use, suitable for smart-casual occasions, business-casual work environments, and everyday wear where comfort and classic style are desired.
Do these loafers have arch support?
The loafers feature an EVA midsole that provides cushioning and some support. For enhanced arch support, consider using aftermarket insoles.
How should I clean the rubber outsole?
The rubber outsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt and debris. Ensure any debris lodged in the sipes is cleared for optimal traction.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Allow for a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially. If discomfort persists, consider using shoe stretchers or consulting a cobbler.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear. Ensure the shoes are clean before conditioning.
Soles are slippery on certain surfaces
While designed for traction, some very smooth surfaces may reduce grip. Ensure the sipes on the outsole are clean and free from debris.
Water spots or stains on leather
Allow shoes to dry naturally. Use a specialized leather cleaner for stains. Apply a leather protectant spray for future prevention.

Care Instructions:
