FAQs
What is the heel height of these shoes?
The heel height for the California Diamante Mesh Pointed Toe Sling Back Heels is 2 inches (5 cm).
Are these heels suitable for individuals with wide feet?
This specific model is a standard fit. For individuals with wider feet, 'Where's That From' may offer specific 'Wide Fit' variants within the California series, which would provide more room.
How should I clean the diamante mesh on the heels?
To clean the diamante mesh, gently wipe it with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For more stubborn spots, use a cotton swab with a tiny amount of mild, diluted soap, then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive rubbing.
Can I wear these heels for an entire day or for extended periods?
Yes, these heels are designed with plush cushioning and gentle support, making them suitable for extended wear at events, the office, or nights out, aiming to provide comfort throughout your activities.
Are these heels true to size?
Generally, 'Where's That From' footwear, including these heels, tends to fit true to size. We recommend selecting your usual UK shoe size for the best fit.
What types of outfits or occasions are these heels best suited for?
These heels are exceptionally versatile. They are perfect for formal occasions like weddings and evening parties, professional settings such as the office, and also for adding a touch of elegance to casual outfits or a night out.
Troubleshooting
Sling back strap keeps slipping off.
Ensure the strap is adjusted to a firm but comfortable tension. If adjustable, try a tighter hole. For elastic straps, gentle breaking in might help. If persistent, consider adding a small, discreet adhesive pad to the inside of the strap for extra grip.
Discomfort or rubbing in the pointed toe area.
This can be common with new pointed-toe shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. Use toe pads or thin socks during the break-in phase. If discomfort persists, consider using a shoe stretcher designed for toe boxes or consulting a cobbler.
Diamantes appear dull or some are missing.
Dullness can often be resolved by gently cleaning the diamantes with a soft, damp cloth or a cotton swab moistened with mild soap. To prevent missing diamantes, handle the heels carefully and avoid rubbing them against abrasive surfaces. If a diamante is lost, craft stores often sell replacement diamantes and adhesive for repair.
Heels feel unstable or wobbly when walking.
First, ensure you have selected the correct shoe size. Practice walking on different surfaces to build confidence. Check the heel tips for wear; worn-down tips can affect stability and should be replaced by a cobbler.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup (Wearing Instructions)
- Placement: Slide your foot into the shoe, ensuring your toes are comfortably seated in the pointed toe box.
- Sling Back Adjustment: Position the sling back strap around your heel. Adjust the buckle or elastic to achieve a snug, secure, but not overly tight fit.
- Initial Wear: For first-time wear, especially if you're not accustomed to pointed toes or heels, wear them for shorter periods around the house to break them in. This allows the materials to conform to your foot shape.

Product Care
- Cleaning the Mesh and Diamantes: Gently wipe the diamante mesh with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dust or light dirt. For more specific cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush (like a clean toothbrush) or a cotton swab with a tiny amount of mild, diluted soap, then gently wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive moisture, which can damage the mesh or loosen the diamantes.
- Spot Cleaning: For the main body of the shoe, use a clean, damp cloth and a mild soap solution for spot cleaning as needed. Pat dry with a clean cloth.
- Drying: Allow the heels to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store the heels in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or box to protect the mesh and diamantes from dust and accidental snags. Avoid stacking heavy items on top of them.
- Protecting the Heel Tip: Regularly check the heel tips for wear. Worn-down heel tips can affect stability and damage the heel itself; replace them as needed.
