FAQs
What material is the Charmouth Lace shoe made of?
The upper is made of premium leather, and the outsole is constructed from durable, flexible TR (thermoplastic rubber).
Are these shoes suitable for formal occasions?
These are primarily casual and semi-casual shoes. While the leather and classic design offer a smart look, they are best suited for relaxed environments rather than formal events.
How do I clean the leather laces?
Leather laces can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking them. If they become very dry, you can apply a small amount of leather conditioner.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is approximately 1.5 cm.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
While the leather and TR sole offer some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Applying a water-repellent spray can offer additional protection.
How should I store my Charmouth Lace shoes when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees is recommended to help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
What is the fit like?
The Charmouth Lace offers a standard fit. Leather is a natural material that will adapt to the shape of your foot over time for a more personalized comfort.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a good quality leather conditioner and allow it to absorb fully. Repeat if necessary.
Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied
Ensure the leather laces are not excessively worn. You can re-tie them more securely or consider replacing them with a similar quality lace.
Slight scuffs or marks on the leather
Attempt to buff out minor marks gently with a soft cloth. For more noticeable scuffs, use a brown leather polish or cream that matches the shoe color.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Break in the shoes further on rougher surfaces. For persistent issues, consider consulting a cobbler about adding grip enhancements to the sole.
