FAQs
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The slip-on design and open-toe style offer some flexibility, but they are generally designed for a standard fit. Refer to the sizing information for specific width recommendations.
Can I wear these in wet conditions?
No, the raffia material is not suitable for wet conditions and can be damaged by prolonged exposure to water. They are best suited for dry weather.
How should I clean the DG logo plaque?
Gently wipe the gold-tone DG logo plaque with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its shine. Avoid abrasive cleaners or polishes.
What type of socks, if any, should I wear with these?
These are typically worn barefoot to maximize comfort and the intended casual summer aesthetic. If socks are preferred, consider very thin, no-show liners.
What is the intended use for these slippers?
These slippers are designed for casual wear during warm weather, such as a day out, relaxing at home, or poolside. They are not intended for athletic activities or extensive walking.
How do I ensure the raffia lasts?
Avoid moisture, excessive heat, and abrasive surfaces. Store them properly in a cool, dry place and clean gently with a soft cloth.
What does 'true to size' mean for this product?
'True to size' indicates that the slipper is expected to fit as per standard European or UK sizing conventions. It's recommended to consult the size chart for precise measurements.
Troubleshooting
Raffia appears dry or brittle.
Avoid prolonged exposure to dry environments or direct heat. Ensure proper storage in a moderately humid (but not damp) environment.
Scuff marks on the raffia.
Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For persistent marks, try a very slightly damp cloth, then dry immediately. Avoid rubbing vigorously.
Gold logo plaque loses shine.
Gently buff with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using metal polishes, as these can damage the antique brass plating.
Slippers feel stiff after drying.
Allow the slippers to return to room temperature naturally. Avoid using heat to speed up drying, as this can make the raffia stiff.

- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. It is recommended to keep them in their original box or a dust bag to protect the raffia and hardware from scratches and dust.
- Hardware Care: The gold-tone DG logo plaque should be wiped gently with a soft cloth to maintain its shine. Avoid polishing compounds that could damage the antique brass plating.
