FAQs
Are these heels suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the Skye Strappy Block Heels feature a cushioned insole and a stable block heel, designed to provide comfort and support for extended periods. However, individual comfort can vary, especially with any heeled shoe.
How do I determine my correct size?
These shoes are generally true to UK sizing. We recommend selecting your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up for comfort, especially if your feet tend to swell.
What is the heel height of these shoes?
Info needed: Please refer to the product specifications for the exact heel height. The description notes 'mid high block heel'.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
As the main material is suede, it is generally recommended to avoid wearing these heels in wet or rainy conditions. Suede can be sensitive to water and may stain or become damaged. Consider using a protective spray.
Are these available in other colors or materials?
This specific product is 'Red' and made from 'Suede'. Other variants of the 'Skye Strappy Block Heels' may be available in different sizes, colors, or materials like 'Faux Leather'. Check product listings for available options.
How do I clean the buckle?
The buckle can typically be wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth. If there is any tarnishing or stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Buckle feels too tight or too loose
Adjust the buckle to a comfortable fit. There are usually multiple holes to allow for varying ankle sizes. Ensure it's secure but not restricting circulation.
Discomfort after extended wear
While the heels have a cushioned insole, prolonged standing or walking can cause discomfort. Consider using additional gel inserts for extra padding, especially in the ball of the foot. Also, ensure you've properly broken them in.
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap and lift away surface dirt. Brush in a consistent direction to even out the texture. For deeper cleaning, a suede eraser or cleaner might be needed.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
New shoe soles can sometimes be very smooth. You can gently scuff the soles on a rough surface (like pavement) to create more grip, or apply stick-on non-slip pads to the forefoot area of the sole.
Heels feel unstable when walking
Ensure the ankle strap is securely fastened but not overly tight. Practice walking in them on various surfaces to build confidence. The block heel design is inherently stable, so check for any debris caught in the sole or heel tip.

Care
Given the suede material, specific care is recommended to maintain the beauty and longevity of your heels:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a suede protector spray. This helps guard against water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor spots, use a suede eraser to gently rub away marks. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner may be necessary, following product instructions carefully.
- Avoid Water: Suede is sensitive to water. Try to avoid wearing these heels in rainy or wet conditions. If they do get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat, then brush gently once dry.
- Storage: Store your heels in a cool, dry place, ideally in a dust bag to protect the suede from light and dust. Use shoe trees or stuff with paper to help maintain their shape.
- Buckle Care: Ensure the buckle mechanism is clean and free of debris for smooth operation.
