ALOHAS Bumi Ballerinas - Black - UK 3.5

Sizing can vary slightly. It is recommended to consult the brand's specific size chart and consider your foot width. If you are between sizes, it's often advised to size up for comfort, especially with a squared toe.

The leather sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Ensure the sole dries completely.

While the leather is durable, it's not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing these ballerinas in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent water damage and staining. Consider using a water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather.

The squared toe offers a more contemporary and structured aesthetic compared to traditional round-toe ballet flats. It also provides a bit more room in the toe box for some individuals.

The frequency of conditioning depends on your climate and how often you wear the shoes. In drier climates or with frequent wear, conditioning every 2-3 months is generally recommended. If the leather starts to feel dry, condition it sooner.

The laces are typically functional for adjusting fit and are part of the shoe's design. While they can usually be removed for cleaning or replacement, it's best to check specific product details or contact customer support if you need to replace them.

Ensure the laces are not tangled. If they feel stiff, a small amount of leather conditioner applied to the lace area might help. Adjust the tension gradually.

Apply a suitable leather conditioner according to the product's instructions. Allow it to absorb fully before wearing.

Leather will stretch slightly with wear. Wear them for short periods initially. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness persists after a few wears.

New leather soles can be slippery. Walking on rougher surfaces or using a fine-grit sandpaper very gently on the sole can help improve grip. Consider adding rubber sole protectors if slipping is a persistent issue.
