Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow the material to soften and adapt to your foot shape. Using thicker socks during these periods can also help stretch them slightly. Ensure you have selected the correct size.

Scuff marks on the patent finish

For minor scuffs, try gently buffing the area with a soft, dry cloth. For more noticeable marks, a specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly applied with a soft cloth may help reduce their appearance. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Slingback strap is too loose or too tight

Adjust the buckle on the slingback strap to find the most comfortable and secure fit. If the strap is consistently too loose even on the tightest setting, consider consulting a cobbler for potential alterations or adding a small pad under the strap.

Gold-tone hardware loses its shine

Gently polish the metal hardware with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn tarnish, a metal polish specifically designed for gold-tone finishes can be used sparingly. Avoid getting polish on the shoe material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These heels require no assembly. They are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you select the correct size for the best fit.

Compatibility:

Ideal for adult women. These heels are compatible with a wide range of outfits, including formal dresses, skirts, trousers, and smart-casual ensembles.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the synthetic patent upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and maintain the shine. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can damage the finish.
  • Storage: Store the heels in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a dust bag to prevent scratches and preserve their shape.
  • Protection: Consider using a patent leather protector spray to add a layer of defense against moisture and minor scuffs, although testing on an inconspicuous area first is recommended.
  • Heel Tips: Check the heel tips periodically for wear and tear. Replace them if they become significantly worn to maintain stability and prevent damage to the heel itself.
