FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?

Yes, they are designed for daily wear, though they are categorized as smart-fashion shoes rather than athletic footwear.

How do I determine my size?

These shoes follow standard UK adult sizing; it is recommended to use your usual dress shoe size.

Can the insoles be replaced?

The insoles are generally fixed, but if you require custom orthotics, you may be able to insert them over the top if space allows.

Is the leather waterproof?

The leather is durable, but not waterproof. We recommend applying a leather protectant spray if you intend to wear them in wet conditions.

What is the benefit of the square toe?

The square toe provides more room in the toe box compared to narrow pointed styles, while offering a modern, sharp aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially

Leather will soften with wear; try wearing them for short periods at home with thick socks to gently stretch the material.

Laces are coming undone

Ensure they are double-knotted if necessary, as new waxed laces can be slightly slippery until they are worked in.

Surface scuffing

Use a matching black shoe polish or cream to buff out minor scuffs and restore the uniform color of the leather.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated and modern square-toe aesthetic
  • Durable, high-quality leather build

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Durrow 5I shoes remain in top condition, follow these steps:

  1. Breaking In: Wear your shoes for short intervals indoors first to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe away dust and debris with a soft cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner designed for smooth leather.
  3. Conditioning: Apply a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to prevent cracking and keep the material supple.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to avoid damaging the leather finish.
  5. Lace Maintenance: If the black waxed laces begin to lose their sheen, they can be easily replaced with standard dress shoe laces, though keeping them clean preserves the original aesthetic.
