FAQs
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is made of leather, featuring a leather insole and sole.
Are these mules suitable for wide feet?
The Lidia 70 mules feature an almond open-toe shape which can accommodate some width. However, for significantly wide feet, the fit may be snug. Trying them on is recommended.
How should I clean the patent leather?
Wipe the patent leather with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is approximately 70mm (or 7cm).
Can these be worn in wet weather?
Due to the open-toe design and leather sole, these mules are not recommended for wet weather conditions. Water can damage the leather and make the soles slippery.
Where are these mules made?
The Paris Texas Lidia 70 mules are made in Italy.
What does 'Designer color name: Jeans' mean?
This refers to the specific shade of blue used by the designer for this model, evoking the color of denim jeans.
Troubleshooting
Mules feel tight or uncomfortable
Leather will stretch slightly with wear. Wear them for short periods indoors on a carpeted surface to break them in. If discomfort persists, consider a professional shoe stretcher or consult a cobbler.
Scuff marks on patent leather
For minor scuffs, try buffing gently with a soft cloth. For more significant marks, a specialized patent leather cleaner or a clear shoe polish may be used, followed by buffing.
Slippery soles
New leather soles can be very slippery. Wear them in carefully on dry, non-abrasive surfaces or have a protective sole applied by a professional cobbler.
Creasing in patent leather
Some creasing is natural with wear, especially at the flex points. Avoid over-bending the shoes. Store them upright or with shoe trees to maintain shape.

Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the patent leather upper with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners which can damage the finish.
- Storage: Store the mules in the provided shoe box to protect them from dust and scratches. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
