FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional settings?

Yes, the classic loafer design and suede material make them suitable for many smart-casual and professional environments.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

Suede is not ideal for wet weather. While the TR rubber sole offers some protection, it's best to avoid prolonged exposure to rain or wet conditions. Using a suede protector spray can offer water resistance.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush for regular cleaning. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for this material, and always test on an inconspicuous area first. Protect with a suede spray afterwards.

What does 'Wide Width Fitting' mean?

It indicates that the shoe is constructed with a wider base and toe box than standard fittings, providing more comfort for individuals with wider feet.

Can I replace the insole?

Yes, the loafers come with a recycled removable footbed, allowing you to easily insert your own custom insoles or orthotics if needed.

What is the heel height?

The heel height is 3cm, providing a modest lift.

What is the lining made of?

The lining is made of fleece, offering a soft and comfortable feel against the foot.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

The 'Wide Width Fitting' is designed for comfort. If still tight, wear with thin socks initially or consider stretching if the material allows, though suede can be sensitive. Ensure the correct size was purchased.

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaning product, following the manufacturer's instructions. Protect with a suede spray after cleaning.

Footbed feels uncomfortable

The shoe features a removable insole. Try wearing the shoe without the insole for a while if it aids comfort, or replace it with your preferred custom orthotic.

Slipping on smooth surfaces

The TR rubber sole provides grip, but always exercise caution on very wet or slick surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris.
