Troubleshooting

Calf hair appears matted or flattened.

Gently brush the affected area with a soft brush, following the natural direction of the hair. Avoid over-brushing. Ensure the shoes are stored properly to prevent matting.

Leather trim shows minor scuffs.

For light scuffs, try using a leather conditioner to buff them out. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Buckle strap feels loose or tight.

Adjust the buckle to the appropriate notch for a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure the buckle mechanism is clean and free of debris.

Pumps feel uncomfortable after short wear.

Ensure the ankle strap is properly adjusted. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods indoors. Consider using padded inserts if needed for additional comfort.
