FAQs
What is the heel height of these boots?
The Ravel Currans Ankle Boots feature a wearable 5cm kitten heel, designed for comfort and elegance.
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
These boots feature an elongated pointed toe and a standard fit. Individuals with wider feet may find them snug. We recommend trying them on to ensure comfort.
How do I clean the leather upper?
For the leather upper (specific to this variant), wipe with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. Use a leather protector periodically and apply a suitable leather conditioner or polish to maintain its appearance and suppleness.
Can I wear these boots in wet weather?
While the leather upper offers some natural resistance, these boots are not waterproof. We advise avoiding heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material and extend their lifespan.
What kind of outfits do these boots best complement?
These boots are designed to add glamour to night-time attire. They pair exceptionally well with blazer dresses, pencil skirts, tailored trousers, and other elegant or semi-formal ensembles.
What is the sole material?
The Ravel Currans Ankle Boots feature a durable synthetic sole.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.
The elongated pointed toe is a standard fit. If new, wear them for short periods to break them in. For genuine leather, a shoe stretcher can gently widen areas. Consider thinner socks.
Zipper is stiff or stuck.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Try gently wiggling the zipper. A small amount of zipper lubricant or graphite from a pencil can help ease movement if it's stiff.
Slipping on smooth indoor surfaces.
The synthetic sole may lack grip on highly polished floors. Consider adding adhesive sole grips (available at shoe repair stores or online) to the bottom of the sole for improved traction.
Scuffs or marks on the leather upper.
For light scuffs, use a leather cleaner followed by a leather conditioner or polish that matches the boot's color. For deeper marks, professional shoe repair may be required.
