Product Information
Full details
The ALMA EN PENA Ballerinas are ideal for adult women seeking a sophisticated yet comfortable everyday flat shoe that blends feminine detailing with minimalist construction. Their primary benefit lies in the slip-on design and the elegant flower adornment on the rounded toe, providing a polished look without the hassle of fasteners. A key caveat is that these flats feature a very low 0.5cm heel, which may not provide significant arch support for those accustomed to more structured footwear.

FAQs
Are these ballet flats true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing; however, since they are slip-ons with no adjustability, it is best to wear them with thin socks or hosiery for the perfect fit.
Can I wear these for long periods of walking?
These shoes are designed for light wear. If you plan to walk extensively, you may want to add an orthopedic insert to compensate for the very low sole profile.
How do I clean the exterior of the shoes?
Use a lightly dampened cloth with a mild soap solution to gently wipe the surface. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners.
Can I machine wash these ballerinas?
No, machine washing can damage the decorative flower and the structure of the shoe. Manual cleaning is highly recommended.
What is the material composition?
While the exterior is a refined textile suitable for the grey aesthetic, ensure you check the interior label upon purchase for specific material care instructions.
Do these shoes come in other sizes or patterns?
Yes, ALMA EN PENA offers various floral patterns and sizes within this range, such as UK 4, 5, 6, and 8.5, depending on current availability.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels slightly too loose while walking
Consider adding a thin adhesive insole or heel grip to improve the fit and prevent slippage.
Floral embellishment looks dusty or loses shape
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris and carefully reshape the petals by hand.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ALMA EN PENA flats stay in excellent condition, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the grey fabric. Since these are slip-ons, ensure you use a shoehorn or pull the heel tab gently to avoid collapsing the back of the shoe. For cleaning, spot clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as the floral element may be delicate. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from artificial heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping or adhesive degradation.
