Full details

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Xavier shoes are designed with a standard fitting. While they offer some flexibility due to the elasticated inserts, they may not be suitable for individuals requiring a significantly wide fit. Consider trying them on to assess comfort.

What is the heel height?

The heel height is approximately 33mm, which is equivalent to 1 1/2 inches.

Can I replace the insoles with my own orthotics?

Yes, the shoes feature removable insoles, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics for personalized support.

How should I clean the leather uppers?

Wipe the leather uppers with a soft, dry cloth for general cleaning. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow the shoes to air dry away from heat. Periodically condition the leather to maintain its quality.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes are made from leather and feature EVA soles. They are not designed to be waterproof and should be protected from excessive moisture or heavy rain.

What material is the sole made of?

The sole is made of lightweight EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate), which provides cushioning and a lighter feel.

How do I care for the EVA sole?

The EVA sole can be easily cleaned by wiping it with a damp cloth. Ensure the sole is dry before wearing the shoes.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially

Leather will naturally stretch and mold to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods indoors to break them in. Ensure you are using the correct size; refer to the size guide if unsure.

Squeaking sound from shoes

This can sometimes occur with new leather or the sole. Try sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or around the heel area to absorb moisture that might be causing friction. Ensure the insole is seated correctly.

Leather appears dry or dull

The leather may need conditioning. Apply a small amount of appropriate leather conditioner with a soft cloth and buff gently to restore its natural sheen.

Difficulty removing insoles

Grip the insole firmly at the heel or toe and pull upwards steadily. If it is very snug, try using a thin, flat tool (like a butter knife) to gently lever up the edge, being careful not to damage the insole or shoe lining.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Smart and versatile style suitable for various occasions.
  • Comfortable for extended wear due to padding and soft leather.
  • Easy to put on and take off with the slip-on design.
  • Lightweight construction reduces foot fatigue.
  • Option to use custom insoles if required.

Cons

  • EVA soles may offer less rugged durability compared to rubber.
  • Leather may require specific care to maintain its appearance.
  • Slip-on style might not offer the same level of secure fit as laced shoes for highly active pursuits.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Hotter Xavier Slip-On Shoes require no assembly. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for adult men with standard-width feet. The removable insoles offer compatibility with most standard custom orthotics. They pair well with a range of casual and smart-casual clothing.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning Leather Uppers: Wipe away dirt and dust with a soft, dry cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Conditioning Leather: To maintain the suppleness and appearance of the leather, use a suitable leather conditioner periodically. Apply sparingly and buff gently.
  3. Sole Care: The EVA soles can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Ensure they are dry before wearing.
  4. Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and moisture.
