FAQs
What material are these mules made of?
The upper is made of GG canvas, and the lining and sole are crafted from leather. The signature Horsebit detail is typically metal.
How should I clean the GG canvas?
Gently wipe the canvas with a dry, soft cloth. For tougher marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying with a clean cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
These mules have a standard fit. While the open-toe design offers some flexibility, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug. Checking specific size measurements can be helpful.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended to wear these mules in wet conditions. The leather sole and canvas upper are not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture.
What does 'Made in Italy' signify for these mules?
It signifies that the shoes have been crafted in Italy, a country renowned for its high-quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and luxury fashion production.
What is included with the purchase?
The mules typically include a Gucci dust bag for storage and a shoe box.
How do I break in the leather sole?
Leather soles can be stiff initially. Wearing them for short periods indoors on various surfaces can help them conform to your foot. Some find that walking on slightly rougher surfaces gently scuffs the sole, improving grip and flexibility.
Troubleshooting
Canvas appears dirty or smudged
Gently wipe the affected area with a dry, soft cloth. For tougher stains, use a slightly damp cloth and a mild soap, then wipe clean with a dry cloth. Ensure the canvas is completely dry before storing.
Leather sole feels slippery
The leather sole may be slippery when new. Walking on rougher surfaces for a short period can help to add some texture. Alternatively, consider having a cobbler apply a thin protective rubber sole layer.
Leather lining feels stiff
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner to the inside leather lining with a soft cloth. Allow it to absorb, then buff gently. Repeat if necessary, but avoid over-conditioning.
Hardware (Horsebit) loses shine
Gently polish the gold-tone hardware with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn tarnish, a specialized metal polish can be used very sparingly on a cotton swab, avoiding contact with the canvas and leather.

Setup: These are ready-to-wear mules. Simply remove them from the dust bag and shoe box. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort.
Compatibility: Designed primarily for adult women's footwear. They pair well with a variety of casual and smart-casual attire, including dresses, skirts, trousers, and shorts.
Care:
- Cleaning the Canvas: Gently wipe the GG canvas with a dry, soft cloth. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth, being careful not to saturate the material. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Caring for Leather: Condition the leather lining and sole periodically with a suitable leather conditioner to keep them supple. Wipe any leather accents with a clean, damp cloth.
- Storage: Store the mules in the provided dust bag to protect them from dust and scratches. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing them in plastic bags, as this can dry out the leather.
- Sole Protection: Consider adding protective soles to the leather outsole if you anticipate frequent use on abrasive surfaces, to prolong the life of the original sole.
