FAQs
What material are these mules made of?
The upper is made of lamb leather, with a leather lining and a leather insole and sole.
How should I clean the metallic silver finish?
Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Are these suitable for everyday wear?
While made with quality materials for comfort, the striking metallic design and leather sole are best suited for special occasions or fashion-forward styling rather than rugged, daily use.
Do they come with any accessories?
Yes, they include a shoe box and a dust bag for storage.
What is the toe shape?
These mules feature a classic round toe shape.
Where are these Dries Van Noten mules made?
These mules are proudly made in Italy.
Can the fit be adjusted?
Yes, the lace-up closure allows for adjustment to customize the fit to your preference.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lace-up closure to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. If the issue persists, consider the sizing.
Metallic finish appears dull or scratched
Gently clean with a soft, dry cloth. For minor scuffs, a leather conditioner designed for metallic finishes might help. Avoid abrasive materials.
Soles feel slippery
Wear the shoes on a carpeted surface for a short period to 'wear in' the soles. Alternatively, consider applying a sole gripper or having a cobbler add a thin rubber sole protector.
Laces are difficult to tie securely
Ensure the laces are properly threaded through all eyelets. If laces are worn, consider replacing them with new, non-slip laces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility: Suitable for adult women. Pairs well with dresses, skirts, trousers, and even high-fashion denim. Ideal for occasions ranging from formal events to stylish casual outings.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For any marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry away from direct heat. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Protection: Use a leather protector spray suitable for metallic finishes to help guard against water and stains. Reapply periodically.
- Storage: Store the mules in the provided dust bag when not in use to protect the metallic finish from scratches and dust. Keep them in the shoe box to maintain their shape.
- Sole Maintenance: New leather soles can be slippery. Consider having them professionally soled or applying a sole grip if frequent wear on smooth surfaces is intended.
