FAQs
What material are the Tamaris Catalina 30 shoes made of?
The shoes feature a leather upper and incorporate a COMFORT lining and a Touch-It insole.
How do I adjust the fit of these slingback shoes?
The fit is adjusted using the buckle fastening on the ankle strap. You can tighten or loosen it to your preference.
Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, they are designed for all-day comfort thanks to the COMFORT lining and the adaptive Touch-It technology in the insole, combined with a stable block heel.
What type of occasions are these heels best for?
These heels are versatile and suitable for both professional environments, such as the office, and formal events like dinners or parties.
How should I clean and care for the leather exterior?
Gently wipe with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Use a leather conditioner periodically to maintain the material's condition and store them in a cool, dry place.
Does the Touch-It technology require a break-in period?
Yes, the Touch-It insole is designed to adapt to your foot over time, so a short break-in period of gradual wear is recommended for optimal comfort.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the leather is durable, it is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain to protect the leather and maintain their appearance and longevity.
Troubleshooting
Buckle is difficult to fasten or unfasten.
Ensure the buckle prong is aligned with the correct hole. If stiff, try gently wiggling it. For persistent stiffness, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant might help over time, applied only to the buckle mechanism itself, not the leather.
Insole feels too firm or not conforming.
The Touch-It technology requires a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for increasingly longer periods to allow the insole to adapt to your foot's shape. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks or hosiery if needed, as this can affect the fit.
Leather shows minor scuffs or marks.
Use a leather cleaner appropriate for beige leather to gently buff out marks. For deeper scuffs, a matching color leather polish or cream may be necessary. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Heel feels unstable or wobbly.
Check if the heel cap is securely attached. If it is loose or worn, it may require professional repair. Ensure you are walking on stable ground and are accustomed to the heel height.
