Regularly wipe off dust and dirt with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied sparingly, then follow with a leather conditioner and polish matching the shoe's color.
No, these are leather dress shoes and are not waterproof. They should be protected from heavy rain and excessive moisture. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
The Dune London Solomon Derby Shoes are designed to fit true to UK size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size.
The break-in period for leather shoes can vary, but typically, these shoes will conform to your feet after a few wears, becoming more comfortable over time. Wearing them for shorter periods initially can help.
While primarily designed for smart casual to formal occasions, they can be paired with tailored dark jeans or chinos for a more elevated casual look. They are not suitable for very casual or athletic wear.
It is recommended to wear dress socks made of cotton, wool, or blends to enhance comfort, absorb moisture, and protect the shoe's interior lining from wear.
Depending on how frequently you wear them and the local climate, conditioning should be done every 1 to 3 months to keep the leather supple, prevent cracking, and maintain its rich appearance.
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. Consider using a shoe stretcher or wearing thicker socks for the first few wears to help the leather conform to your foot.
Clean the affected area, then apply a small amount of matching leather polish or cream. Gently buff with a soft cloth until the scuff is less noticeable and the shine is restored.
Clean the shoes thoroughly, then apply a quality leather conditioner. Work the conditioner into the leather in small circular motions and allow it to absorb before buffing lightly.
Remove the insoles if possible and allow the shoes to air out in a well-ventilated area for at least 24 hours. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight.
These shoes require no specific setup beyond traditional lacing. For optimal use and longevity, consider the following: Compatibility * Attire: Best paired with formal trousers, suits, chinos, or smart dark-wash denim. * Socks: Always wear with dress socks to ensure comfort, absorb moisture, and protect the shoe's inner lining. Care & Maintenance 1. Regular Cleaning: After each wear, gently wipe off any dirt or dust with a soft, dry cloth. 2. Conditioning: Every 1-3 months, apply a high-quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. 3. Polishing: Use a shoe polish matching the brown color to restore shine and cover minor scuffs. Apply sparingly and buff to a sheen. 4. Protection from Moisture: Avoid wearing in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat. 5. Shoe Trees: Insert cedar shoe trees after each use to absorb moisture, maintain the shoe's shape, and prevent creasing. 6. Rotate Wear: Allow your shoes to rest for at least 24 hours between wears to let them air out and recover their shape.
