How do I clean the Cassandre metal detail?
Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to wipe the metal hardware periodically to maintain its luster.
Are these shoes true to size?
The loafers follow standard UK sizing; however, individual fit may vary based on foot width.

The exterior is crafted from premium, high-quality velvet.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust on the velvet surface
Use a soft-bristled brush or a lint roller designed for delicate fabrics to gently lift away debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Le Loafers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since they are made of velvet, avoid using stiff brushes that might crush the pile of the fabric. Use a soft-bristled garment brush to gently remove surface dust after each wear. Store them in a cool, dry place inside the provided dust bags to prevent dust accumulation and sunlight fading. Avoid direct contact with liquids, and if they get wet, dab them gently with a dry cloth—never rub. If deep cleaning is required, take them to a professional leather and fabric goods cobbler.
