Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Rayleigh loafers provide lasting service, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Break-in: Wear your shoes for short durations around your home initially to allow the leather to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a dry soft cloth to remove dust after each wear. For deeper cleaning, apply a leather-specific cream conditioner.
- Storage: Always use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather retain its shape and prevent unwanted creasing.
- Weather Protection: Keep the leather dry. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
- Compatibility: These shoes fit true to standard UK sizing; ensure you wear appropriate dress socks to maintain the intended fit and feel.
