FAQs

How do I determine my correct shoe size?

Refer to the Base London size chart and measure your feet. It's best to measure your feet in the evening when they are at their largest.

How should I clean my leather shoes?

Wipe the shoes with a soft, damp cloth. Use a leather cleaner and conditioner for more thorough cleaning and to maintain the leather's quality.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers some protection, it's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. Consider using a leather protectant spray.

What is an Ortholite insole?

An Ortholite insole is a high-quality insole made of open-cell foam, providing superior cushioning, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties for enhanced comfort.

How often should I condition the leather?

Condition the leather every few weeks, or more frequently if you wear the shoes often or live in a dry climate.

Where are these shoes made?

These shoes are made in India.

What kind of closure do these shoes have?

These shoes feature a buckle closure.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Check the size and consider wearing thinner socks. Leather shoes may need a break-in period to conform to your feet.

Leather shows signs of wear and tear (creasing, scratches).

Use leather conditioner and a polishing cloth to maintain and restore the leather. Apply a protective spray to prevent damage.

Sole is slippery.

Ensure the sole is clean. For added grip, consider having the soles professionally treated or adding a grip-enhancing product.
