FAQs

Are these true to size?

The CASTANER Carina series typically fits true to standard UK sizing, though the suede may stretch slightly over time to accommodate the natural shape of your foot.

Can I wear these in the rain?

No, it is advised to avoid wearing these in the rain, as moisture can damage the suede upper and the jute-wrapped wedge heel.

How do I clean the rubber sole?

Use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe down the rubber outsole, taking care to keep the moisture away from the suede and jute elements.

Are the ribbons replaceable?

Yes, if the ribbons wear out, they can often be replaced with silk or cotton ribbons of a similar length and width.

Is the heel height comfortable for long walks?

While the wedge provides more stability than a stiletto, the 9cm height makes these more suitable for events where standing and sitting are alternated, rather than long-distance walking.

Troubleshooting

Ribbons slipping during wear

Ensure you are using a double knot at the ankle and consider crossing the laces at the front of the ankle before tying for extra tension.

Surface stains on suede

Use a dedicated suede eraser and brush gently in one direction to lift the stain, avoiding any liquid cleaners.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic, timeless design suitable for various outfits
  • High-quality suede material offers a premium aesthetic
  • Adjustable lace-up closure ensures a personalized fit
  • Leather interior provides improved comfort over synthetic alternatives
  • Sturdy rubber sole improves longevity

Cons

  • 9cm heel height may be challenging for all-day walking
  • Suede material requires careful maintenance to prevent staining
  • Not suitable for wet weather conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the perfect fit, lace the ribbons securely around the ankle, ensuring they are tight enough to prevent slipping but loose enough to avoid cutting into the skin. Since these shoes feature suede, it is highly recommended to treat them with a professional-grade suede protector spray before the first use. If the suede becomes dirty, use a specialized suede brush to gently remove surface debris. Avoid exposing the shoes to rain or heavy puddles, as water can compromise the integrity of the jute and the suede finish. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees or stuffing to maintain their shape.
