FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK sizing, though the box-toe design offers a roomier fit.
Can I wear these without socks?
While you can, the extra-cushioned insole is comfortable for bare feet, but we recommend low-cut liners to prevent rubbing.
How do I protect the metallic leather?
Use a gentle leather protector spray suitable for metallic finishes, avoiding wax-heavy polishes.
Is the sole slippery on wet surfaces?
The new flexible rubber sole is designed for standard city surfaces, but always use caution on wet or oily floors.
Does the square toe change how I walk?
It provides a more ergonomic stance, allowing your toes to splay naturally, which often improves balance and comfort.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels loose around the heel.
Ensure the elasticated tongue is positioned correctly across the bridge of your foot to pull the shoe snug.
Metallic finish appears dull after wear.
Clean the surface thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris, then buff gently with a soft dry cloth to restore the shine.
Pros and Cons

- Enhanced comfort with extra-cushioned insoles
- Ergonomic wider fit avoids toe crowding

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Aurix Mules in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While the shoe features extra cushioning, the leather structure may require a few short wears to soften fully to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners as they can strip the metallic Satin Finish from the leather.
- Maintenance: Apply a leather conditioner sparingly to keep the material supple, but test on an inconspicuous area first to ensure it does not dull the metallic sheen.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature fading of the metallic finish.
- Compatibility: These mules fit standard adult sizes, but the wider box-toe may allow for thicker socks in cooler weather compared to traditional boots.
