FAQs
How do I determine my correct UK size?
The Scarosso Julian Loafer fits true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. Please refer to standard UK sizing charts for men's footwear if you are unsure.
Can these loafers be worn in wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, calfskin leather is not inherently waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the leather. Using a water-repellent spray can offer some protection against light moisture.
What is the sole height?
The sole height of the Julian Loafer is approximately 7 mm.
How should I store my loafers when not in use?
It is recommended to store the loafers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using cedar shoe trees is highly advised as they help absorb moisture and maintain the shoe's shape.
Is the monk strap functional or decorative?
The single-buckle monk strap is functional and can be adjusted for a customized fit. Combined with the elasticated heel, it provides both security and comfort.
What type of leather is used?
The Scarosso Julian Loafer is constructed from soft calfskin leather.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
Natural leather will crease with wear. Ensure you are using shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape. Avoid over-tightening the buckle, which can contribute to undue stress.
Slight discomfort on the heel
The elasticated heel is designed for comfort. If initial wear causes minor irritation, try wearing them with thin socks for a few days as the leather breaks in.
Scuffs or marks on the leather
For minor scuffs, a good quality leather conditioner or a color-matched shoe cream can often help to buff them out. For deeper marks, professional leather repair may be considered.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the calfskin leather with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt. For more persistent marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow the shoes to air dry completely.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a quality leather conditioner to keep the calfskin supple and prevent it from drying out. Test conditioners on an inconspicuous area first.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather to offer protection against the elements and spills.
- Storage: Store the loafers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape when not in use.
