FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Aldwin Step has a standard fit. If you have particularly wide feet, it is recommended to try them on in person or check reviews for specific feedback on the width.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the TR sole offers some grip, suede is not ideal for wet conditions as it can stain and damage the material. It is best to avoid wearing these shoes in rain or snow and to use a suede protector spray for added resistance.
How often should I clean my suede shoes?
Regular brushing with a suede brush after each wear can help maintain their appearance and remove surface dirt. Deeper cleaning or stain removal should be done as needed.
What is the Contour Cushion footbed?
The Contour Cushion footbed is an insole designed to provide enhanced comfort and support by contouring to the shape of your foot, reducing pressure points during wear.
How do I break in new suede shoes?
Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Wearing them with appropriate socks can also help the material adapt to your foot shape more comfortably.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made of durable TR (thermoplastic rubber), which provides excellent traction and longevity.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight on first wear
Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them around the house for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet. Consider using a shoe tree to help stretch specific areas.
Suede becoming discolored or stained
Address stains immediately. Use a specialized suede eraser for dry marks and a damp cloth with mild soap for more stubborn stains, being careful not to oversaturate the material. Always allow suede to air dry completely.
Traction on the sole is reduced
Clean the TR sole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be affecting grip. Ensure the shoes are dry before walking on slippery surfaces.
