FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they are designed to standard UK sizing, but keep in mind that the leather structure may feel firmer than synthetic materials initially.
Can I wear these for casual outings?
While they are intended for formal settings, their brogue detailing allows them to pair well with smart-casual trousers like chinos for a sophisticated look.
How do I polish brown leather shoes?
Use a soft cloth to apply brown shoe polish in circular motions, let it sit for a few minutes, and then buff with a horsehair brush to achieve a shine.
Is the sole replaceable?
The heavy unit sole is designed for durability; however, for extensive repairs, consult a professional cobbler to determine if the unit can be resoled.
What is the best way to clean the brogue perforations?
Use a small, soft-bristled brush to gently clear out any dirt or debris that may accumulate in the decorative perforations.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Leather will naturally stretch and mold to your feet over time; try wearing thicker socks for short periods at home to gently accelerate the stretching process.
Leather surface scuffs easily
Apply a matching brown leather conditioner or polish to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore the uniform color of the leather.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Goor Oxford shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear them for short durations indoors before wearing them for an all-day event to allow the leather to conform to your feet.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove dust after each wear. Apply a high-quality brown shoe cream or polish periodically to maintain the luster and keep the leather hydrated.
- Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to maintain the shape of the almond toe and prevent excessive creasing.
- Protection: Consider using a leather water-repellent spray if you plan on wearing them in rainy climates to protect the finish.
