FAQs

What is the heel height of these shoes?

The heel height is 5cm, which is approximately 2 inches.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The shoes feature a round toe, which generally offers more room than pointed styles. However, the fit can depend on the specific width of your foot and how you adjust the strap.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth. For stains or to condition the leather, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the rubber sole offers some protection, it is not recommended to wear these 100% leather shoes in heavy rain, as moisture can damage the leather if not properly treated and cared for.

What is the fastening mechanism?

The shoes feature a strap and buckle fastening for a secure and adjustable fit.

What materials are used for the lining and sole?

The lining and cushioning are made of 100% leather, and the sole is made of 100% rubber.

Do these heels come in other colors?

This specific product guide is for the black variant. Please check other listings for available color options from Lauren Ralph Lauren.

Troubleshooting

Heels feel slightly stiff on first wear.

This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot. Using a leather conditioner can also help.

Buckle strap is difficult to fasten.

Ensure the buckle prong is aligned with the correct hole before tightening. If the leather is new, it might be stiff; gentle manipulation can help. Avoid forcing the buckle.

Scuff marks appear on the leather.

For minor scuffs, try buffing gently with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a black shoe polish or cream specifically designed for leather, applying it with a soft cloth and buffing to a shine.

Soles are slippery on certain surfaces.

The rubber sole provides traction, but if you find them particularly slippery on polished or wet surfaces, consider applying a light abrasive (like fine-grit sandpaper) to the sole to slightly roughen the surface, or consult a cobbler about adding grip pads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Crafted from high-quality, genuine leather for a luxurious feel and lasting wear.
  • The block heel design offers enhanced stability and comfort compared to stiletto heels.
  • Adjustable strap and buckle closure allows for a personalized and secure fit.
  • Versatile design suitable for both smart-casual and formal occasions.
  • Features leather lining and cushioning for increased foot comfort.

Cons

  • Leather requires regular maintenance to prevent drying or damage.
  • May require a breaking-in period for optimal comfort.
  • The heel height, while moderate, might not be suitable for those preferring flat shoes.
  • Black color can show scuffs more readily than lighter colors if not properly cared for.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. Ensure the strap and buckle are adjusted for a comfortable and secure fit before wearing.

Compatibility: Designed as footwear, compatible with a wide range of adult female attire.

Care Instructions:

  • Uppers: Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning or to restore shine, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner specifically designed for black leather. Avoid excessive water.
  • Lining and Cushioning: The 100% leather lining can be gently wiped with a slightly damp cloth if needed, but allow to air dry completely. Avoid soaking.
  • Sole: The rubber sole should be kept clean. Check for any debris that might affect traction. If worn down, consider having them resoled by a professional cobbler.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box to protect them from dust and scratches.
