Full details
The Ravel Farran Open-Toe Sandals are designed for women seeking to add a touch of elegance and style to their outfits, particularly for special occasions or evening wear. Their key benefit lies in combining a fashionable design with a stable platform block heel, providing height without compromising too much on comfort.

FAQs
What is the heel height of the Ravel Farran sandals?
The Farran sandals feature a substantial 10cm platform block heel, designed to provide height with stability.
Are these sandals comfortable for all-day wear?
While the platform block heel offers more stability than a stiletto, a 10cm heel can still be challenging for very prolonged, all-day wear. They are optimally suited for events, parties, and evenings.
How do I clean my Ravel Farran sandals?
Gently wipe the upper with a soft, damp cloth. For the leather sock lining, use a slightly damp cloth or a leather-specific cleaner. Always allow them to air dry completely.
What type of events are these sandals suitable for?
These sandals are ideal for formal events, semi-formal gatherings, parties, weddings, evening outings, and any occasion where an elegant and elevated look is desired.
What materials are used in the Ravel Farran sandals?
The upper and sole are made of 'Other Materials,' while the lining/sock features a combination of 'Other Materials' and 'Leather' (specifically for the sock). The specific composition of 'Other Materials' is not detailed.
Is the ankle strap adjustable?
Yes, the Ravel Farran sandals are equipped with an adjustable ankle strap fastening, allowing you to customize the fit for security and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Ankle strap feels too tight or too loose.
Utilize the adjustable buckle on the ankle strap to find the most comfortable and secure fit. Ensure it allows for natural movement without rubbing.
Discomfort after prolonged wear.
Due to the 10cm heel, discomfort can occur with extended wear. Consider taking breaks, and for additional cushioning, forefoot gel inserts can help reduce pressure on the ball of your foot.
Foot slides forward in the sandal.
Ensure the ankle strap is fastened snugly. For persistent sliding, try using discreet forefoot cushioning pads or non-slip inserts to help keep your foot in place.
Material scuffs or marks appear on the sandal.
Clean immediately with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, consult professional shoe care or use a cleaner appropriate for the specific 'Other Materials' (if known) or leather sock lining.
Sandals feel unstable or wobbly.
Ensure the ankle strap is securely fastened. Practice walking in them on various surfaces. If the issue persists, check for any damage to the heel or sole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your Ravel Farran Sandals involves proper fitting and consistent care.
Setup & Wearing
- Adjust Ankle Strap: Before wearing, adjust the buckle on the ankle strap to ensure a secure yet comfortable fit. It should be snug enough to prevent your foot from sliding but not so tight that it pinches or restricts circulation.
- Ensure Proper Foot Placement: The crossover toe strap should gently cradle the front of your foot. Confirm that your toes are not being squeezed and that your heel sits comfortably on the footbed.
- Break-in Period: For optimal comfort during longer wear, it is advisable to wear the sandals for short periods around your home before their first extended outing. This helps the materials conform to your foot.
Compatibility
- Outfit Pairings: Best suited for formal, semi-formal, or smart-casual attire. Excellent with dresses, skirts, tailored trousers, and jumpsuits. The elegant design is intended to complement sophisticated outfits.
- Occasions: Ideal for parties, weddings, evening events, upscale gatherings, and any situation where you wish to enhance your look with stylish footwear.
Care Instructions
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the 'Other Materials' upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove any surface dirt or dust. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
- Cleaning the Leather Sock Lining: For the internal leather sock lining, use a specialized leather cleaner applied sparingly to a clean cloth, or a very slightly damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely, away from direct heat.
- Storage: When not in use, store your sandals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Using a shoe bag can protect them from dust and scratches, helping to maintain their appearance.
- Avoid Moisture: Do not expose the sandals to heavy rain or prolonged moisture. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, never using artificial heat sources.
- Professional Care: For stubborn stains, significant damage, or if you are unsure about cleaning a specific material, consult a professional shoe care specialist.
