FAQs

Should I size up in these Mary Jane shoes?

Yes, the manufacturer recommends sizing up in this style to ensure a comfortable and proper fit.

What is the sole made of?

The distinctive sole is constructed from rubber produced using recycled bicycle tyres.

Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?

They are designed for comfort with an organic cotton lining, making them suitable for general daily wear. However, the velvet and unique sole are best suited for fashion and moderate activity.

How do I clean the velvet upper?

Gently brush with a soft brush or use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid excessive water or harsh cleaning agents.

What is the lining material?

The lining is made from 100% organic cotton and features an anti-bacterial treatment.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear velvet shoes in wet conditions as moisture can damage the material. The recycled rubber sole offers some protection, but prolonged exposure to water should be avoided.

What makes the design unique?

The unique design comes from the combination of a classic Mary Jane silhouette, a premium velvet upper, and a sole made from recycled bicycle tyres, along with intricate stitch detailing.

Troubleshooting

Velvet appears matted or flattened

Gently brush the velvet with a soft-bristled brush in the direction of the nap to restore its texture. Avoid pressing down too hard.

Slight odor from the recycled sole

This is sometimes normal for recycled materials. Air the shoes out in a well-ventilated area for a few days. The odor typically dissipates over time.

Buckle closure feels stiff

Gently work the buckle back and forth a few times. If it remains stiff, a small application of silicone-based lubricant (specifically for footwear) can be used sparingly on the buckle mechanism.

Shoes feel tight despite ordering usual size

As recommended, consider trying a size up. Velvet can also take a short period to mold slightly to the foot, but if initially too tight, sizing up is advised.
