FAQs

Are the 1461 Quad II shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK adult sizes, though the robust platform construction may feel slightly more substantial on the foot.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, you can replace the tonal laces with any standard-length shoelace that fits the eyelet diameter.

How high is the platform sole?

The Quad platform sole measures 1.85 inches in height.

Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?

Many users find them comfortable for all-day wear thanks to the soft leather finish, though the platform weight is something to consider if you are not accustomed to heavier shoes.

How should I clean the yellow stitching?

Gently clean the stitching with a soft-bristled toothbrush and a small amount of mild soap and water.

Is the leather waterproof?

While the Goodyear-welted construction is heat-sealed and durable, the leather is not strictly waterproof and should be treated with a protectant spray if you plan to wear them in wet conditions.

Troubleshooting

Stiff leather during initial wears

Wear the shoes with thick socks for short periods at home to gradually soften the material.

Difficulty maintaining shine

Apply a high-quality leather balm or polish specifically formulated for finished leather surfaces.

Sole catching debris

Use a medium-bristled brush to clear the tread of the platform sole after walking on muddy or gravel surfaces.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, durable leather construction
  • Provides significant height increase with the platform sole
  • Comfortable fit requires minimal break-in time
  • Sturdy Goodyear-welted construction for long-term wear
  • Bold, versatile style suitable for various outfits

Cons

  • Platform sole adds noticeable weight to the shoe
  • Not suitable for activities requiring extreme agility
  • Leather requires periodic care to maintain its finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are low-cut shoes, they pair well with various trouser styles, including cropped pants, slim jeans, or wide-leg trousers. To keep the leather in top condition, wipe away dirt with a damp cloth regularly. Use a standard leather conditioner or wax polish to prevent the material from drying out and to maintain its luster. For the platform sole, a soft brush and water can be used to remove debris from the grooves to maintain traction.
