FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made of nubuck, a type of leather with a sanded surface that gives it a velvety feel.
What are the laces made of?
The laces are made of leather, providing a classic look and a secure, adjustable fit.
What is the outsole material?
The outsole is made of TR (thermoplastic rubber), which is known for being flexible, durable, and lightweight.
How should I clean the suede lining?
The suede lining should be kept dry. For minor cleaning, a gentle brush can be used. Avoid moisture, and if a spill occurs, blot it immediately and allow it to air dry.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is approximately 1.5 cm.
Are these shoes waterproof?
These shoes are not designed to be waterproof. They are made from natural materials like nubuck and suede, which can be damaged by excessive moisture.
Can I wear these for formal occasions?
The Charmouth Lace is best suited for smart-casual occasions due to its boat shoe design. They are not typically considered formal wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the leather laces for a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size.
Suede lining shows marks or discoloration.
Attempt to gently brush the affected area with a suede brush. For stubborn marks, use a specialized suede cleaner cautiously, following the product's instructions. Avoid saturation.
Surface dirt on nubuck upper.
Use a dry suede brush to gently remove loose dirt. For more ingrained dirt, a suede eraser or cleaner may be required.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. While the TR sole offers grip, extreme conditions may require footwear with specialized tread.
