FAQs
Can I wear these loafers in the rain?
No, it is highly recommended to avoid wearing velvet shoes in wet conditions as water can cause permanent staining and damage the fabric.
How do I clean the velvet material?
Use a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for fabric or velvet. Always brush in the direction of the nap to prevent damage.
Are these shoes true to size?
The shoes follow standard UK sizing conventions. We recommend selecting your usual size for the best fit.
What is the Cassandre emblem made of?
The Cassandre emblem is a metallic decorative piece integrated into the upper for a signature Saint Laurent finish.
Can these be worn without socks?
Yes, they are designed to be comfortable against the skin, but using no-show socks can help with hygiene and moisture management during longer wear.
How should I store them?
Store them in a dust bag in a cool, dark, and dry environment to protect the velvet from sun fading and dust.
Troubleshooting
Surface dust or lint accumulation
Use a specialized soft-bristled velvet brush to gently sweep away particles in the direction of the nap.
Water or liquid contact
Gently blot the area with a clean, dry absorbent cloth immediately; do not rub, as this can crush the velvet fibers.
Loss of shape
Insert high-quality shoe trees when not in use to help the velvet maintain its form.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these loafers are made of delicate velvet, proper maintenance is essential for longevity. To keep them in top condition, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust after each wear, moving in the direction of the velvet's nap. Avoid contact with moisture or abrasive surfaces, as these can permanently damage the fabric pile. When not in use, store the loafers in a dust bag within a cool, dry place to prevent the material from fading or losing its shape. Ensure your size selection aligns with standard UK sizing for the best fit, as the supple material is designed to contour comfortably to your foot over time.
