FAQs
Are these slippers suitable for outdoor use?
No, the suede sole is designed specifically for indoor use and will degrade rapidly if exposed to concrete or wet outdoor surfaces.
How should I store these slippers?
Store them in a cool, dry area. Using wooden shoe trees can help maintain their shape when not in use.
What is the best way to clean the calf leather?
Use a soft cloth to remove dust and a mild leather cream or conditioner to maintain the suppleness of the hide.
Do these slippers run true to size?
The Draper Charles Slippers generally follow standard UK sizing; however, since they are crafted from leather, they will slightly mold to the shape of your foot with regular wear.
Can I wear these without socks?
Yes, the smooth leather lining is designed to be comfortable against the bare skin, offering excellent breathability.
Troubleshooting
Suede sole has become slippery
Gently roughen the surface of the sole with a suede brush to restore its natural texture and grip.
Leather upper feels stiff
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner and allow it to absorb; the warmth from your feet will also help soften the leather as you wear them.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These slippers are ready to wear immediately out of the box with no break-in period required due to the softness of the calf leather. To maintain the life of your footwear, keep them away from water, as moisture can damage both the leather upper and the suede sole. If the soles become dusty or lose grip over time, gently brush them with a suede brush to restore the nap. To clean the leather upper, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away surface debris, and apply a high-quality leather conditioner occasionally to keep the material from drying out or cracking. Always store the slippers in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources such as radiators, which can cause the leather to become brittle.
