FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The Le Loafer Supple typically fits true to standard UK sizing, but the destructured velvet may feel more forgiving than stiff calfskin.

Can I wear these in the rain?

No, it is highly recommended to avoid moisture, as water can permanently damage the texture of the velvet material.

How do I maintain the gold hardware?

Keep the metal hardware dry and wipe occasionally with a soft, dry cloth to prevent oxidation.

Is the sole suitable for all-day walking?

While comfortable, these are designed as formal low shoes and are best suited for events rather than extensive walking on rough pavement.

What is the heel height?

The total heel height for this model is 1.5 cm.

Troubleshooting

Visible lint or dust on the velvet

Use a specialized velvet brush or a soft lint-free fabric to gently sweep the surface in one direction.

Hardware appears dull

Gently wipe the gold Cassandre monogram with a clean, dry, non-abrasive microfibre cloth to restore its luster.

Loss of shape

Use shoe trees when not in use to help the shoe retain its natural structure and prevent creasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Le Loafer Supple remains in pristine condition, avoid wearing them in wet weather conditions as velvet can become matted or discolored when damp. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust, always brushing in the direction of the nap. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources. When not in use, store them in a fabric shoe bag to prevent the velvet from rubbing against other surfaces and to protect the gold hardware from scratches. Given the slip-on nature, consider using a shoe horn when putting them on to maintain the integrity of the heel counter.
