FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

No, they are made from suede, which is porous. You should apply a waterproof spray to protect them from light moisture, but they are not intended for heavy rain or deep puddles.

What does the D+ width fitting mean?

The D+ (or Gabor H) fitting is a wider-than-average fit, providing extra width across the forefoot for increased comfort.

Can I replace the insole?

The Balban boots feature a synthetic lining; if you require custom orthotics, it is best to consult a professional cobbler to see if the existing insole can be safely removed.

How do I clean mud off suede?

Allow the mud to dry completely, then gently brush it away with a suede brush. Do not rub wet mud into the material.

Is the heel height comfortable for long walks?

Yes, the 3cm block heel is designed for stability, making these appropriate for extended periods of walking compared to higher or thinner heels.

Troubleshooting

Suede surface looking flat or worn

Use a suede brush in circular motions to lift the fibers and restore the velvety nap.

Difficulty zipping up

Ensure the lace tension isn't too tight; check for debris trapped in the zipper teeth and gently clean with a soft cloth.

Initial tightness

Loosen the laces fully before putting the boots on, then re-tighten to match the shape of your foot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Accommodating wide fit (UK D+ / Gabor H)
  • Easy to put on and remove with side zip
  • Stable heel height for all-day wear
  • Sophisticated suede finish
  • Reliable rubber traction

Cons

  • Suede requires protection from rain and moisture
  • Limited to specific colorways
  • Requires regular brushing to maintain texture

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots come ready to wear out of the box. Use the laces to establish your preferred tension across the bridge of your foot, then use the side zipper for daily access.

Compatibility: The Balban range is designed for a formal-casual aesthetic. They pair well with denim, tailored trousers, or casual winter skirts.

Care: To protect the suede, apply a specialized suede protector spray before the first use. If the boots become dusty, use a soft-bristle suede brush to restore the nap. Avoid submerging the boots in water. If they get wet, stuff them with paper to maintain shape and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources.
