FAQs
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
It is strongly advised to avoid wearing suede shoes in wet conditions. Water can stain and damage the suede. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally (do not use heat) and brush them gently once dry.
How do I clean spills on the suede?
For fresh spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth – do not rub. For dried stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner according to its instructions. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Are these shoes true to size?
The Araceli pumps are designed to be true to standard UK adult sizing. We recommend selecting your usual UK shoe size for the best fit.
Can the block heel be replaced or repaired?
While the block heel is designed for durability, in cases of damage or wear, a professional cobbler may be able to repair or replace it. Contact a local shoe repair specialist for assessment.
What outfits pair best with these pumps?
These versatile pumps can be dressed up or down. They pair wonderfully with professional attire (trousers, skirts, dresses), evening wear, and even smart casual outfits like skinny jeans or leggings, adding an elegant touch.
How do I prevent the suede from fading?
To prevent fading, store your shoes away from direct sunlight and consider using a UV-protective suede spray as part of your care routine. Regular gentle brushing also helps maintain the suede's appearance and color.
Is the Mary Jane strap adjustable?
Info needed: [Please refer to the product details or images to confirm if the strap features an adjustable buckle or is fixed.]
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or dirty
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush, always in the direction of the nap, to restore its texture and remove surface dirt. For deeper dirt or scuffs, use a suede eraser.
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If slightly snug, consider wearing them with thin socks around the house to gently stretch the material, or use a shoe stretcher for minor adjustments.
Mary Jane strap feels uncomfortable or rubs
Check that the strap is not overtightened; it should be snug but not restrictive. Over time, the material may soften and conform more comfortably to your foot. If discomfort persists, padding or a professional adjustment might be needed.
Scratches or scuffs appear on the suede
Use a suede eraser on scuffed areas to gently lift the nap and minimize the appearance of marks. For deeper scratches or significant damage, professional suede repair by a cobbler may be necessary.
Suede color appears faded or dull
Ensure proper storage away from direct sunlight. Regular cleaning and reapplication of a high-quality suede protector can help maintain color vibrancy. Some specialized suede restorers may also help, but test in an inconspicuous area first.

Care Instructions for Suede
To ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your suede pumps, follow these essential care guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains. Reapply periodically as per the product's instructions.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush away dirt and dust. Always brush in the direction of the nap to avoid damaging the material.
- Spot Cleaning: For small marks or scuffs, use a suede eraser. For more stubborn stains, a specialized suede cleaner designed for spot treatment can be used sparingly. Follow the cleaner's instructions carefully.
- Drying Wet Suede: If your shoes happen to get wet, stuff them with crumpled newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not use artificial heat sources to dry them, as this can damage the suede.
- Storage: Store your pumps in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and prevent creases over time. Avoid storing in plastic bags, which can trap moisture and cause damage.
- Avoid Water: Suede is highly susceptible to water damage and staining. It is strongly recommended to avoid wearing these pumps in rain, snow, or muddy conditions whenever possible.
