FAQs
What is the main advantage of the Lance shoe's material?
The main advantage is the premium suede, certified by the Leather Working Group, which offers a refined look and feel, combined with the comfort and breathability of a full leather interior.
How do I clean my brown suede Lance shoes?
Regularly brush with a suede brush. For marks, use a suede eraser. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner and always allow to air dry naturally.
Are these shoes suitable for rainy weather?
While a suede protector can offer some resistance, suede is not ideal for heavy rain. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions to preserve their material and appearance.
What kind of outfits do the Lance shoes complement?
They are ideal for smart-casual outfits, pairing well with chinos, tailored trousers, and dark denim. They can elevate both everyday looks and more formal weekend attire.
What does 'Leather Working Group certified' mean?
It means the leather used in the shoes has been produced in factories audited and rated by the Leather Working Group for their environmental performance.
Can I wear these shoes for long periods?
Yes, the full leather lining and insole provide comfort and breathability, making them suitable for extended wear throughout the day.
What is the fit like?
The lace-up design allows for an adjustable fit. It is recommended to select your standard UK shoe size. For precise measurements, consult a sizing chart or visit a store if possible.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede eraser for dry marks or a specialized suede cleaner for tougher stains. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first. Brush gently with a suede brush afterwards.
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. For initial tightness, wear them around the house for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain shape and stretch.
Water spots on suede
Once dry, use a suede brush to try and blend the affected area. Applying a suede protector spray can help prevent future water spotting.
Laces are worn or damaged
Replace laces with a similar style and length to maintain the shoe's aesthetic. Jones Bootmaker may offer replacement laces or recommendations.
