FAQs
What is the 'air cord' apron seam?
The 'air cord' apron seam is a construction technique where the upper is stitched over a cord before heat setting. This creates a smooth, minimalist seam without any overlap, contributing to the shoe's clean aesthetic.
How do I ensure the correct UK size?
We recommend measuring your foot from heel to the longest toe and comparing it with a standard UK sizing chart. As these are low shoes, a snug but comfortable fit is ideal.
Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
While a suede protector can offer some resistance, suede is not ideal for wet conditions. It's best to avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or wet environments to prevent damage.
What type of socks are best with these loafers?
Ankle socks or no-show socks are recommended to maintain the clean look of the loafer. Cotton or wool socks in complementary colors work well.
How often should I reapply suede protector?
Reapply suede protector every few months, especially after cleaning or if the shoes have been exposed to significant wear or moisture.
Are these shoes suitable for standing for long periods?
The combination of a leather insock, lining, and a lightweight cupsole offers good comfort for extended wear. However, for very demanding situations, consider inserts if necessary.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser.
Shoes have been exposed to water.
Blot excess water immediately with a clean cloth. Stuff shoes with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Allow to air dry naturally away from heat sources.
Creases in suede are too pronounced.
Light creasing is natural with suede. Gentle brushing can help minimize their appearance. Avoid bending the shoes excessively.
