FAQs
Are these slippers suitable for wearing outside?
No, these are designed for indoor use only. The suede sole will be damaged by concrete, water, or outdoor debris.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
Absolutely not. Machine washing will ruin the leather and the structure of the slippers. Use leather-safe cleaners only.
How does the sizing run?
This model is a UK size 8. The calf leather is forgiving, but we recommend choosing your standard shoe size for the best fit.
Are they lined with sheepskin?
No, these feature a smooth leather lining, which provides a cool and breathable feel compared to shearling.
How do I maintain the black finish?
Use a high-quality neutral or black leather cream to polish the leather and keep the color vibrant.
Troubleshooting
Slippers feel slightly stiff initially
Calf leather is natural and will soften and mold to the shape of your feet after a few days of regular wear.
Suede sole losing grip
Use a suede brush to gently lift the fibers of the sole, which helps restore traction and texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These slippers are ready to wear immediately upon arrival. To ensure longevity, store them in a cool, dry place when not in use. Since they feature genuine calf leather, you should occasionally apply a high-quality leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Avoid getting the suede soles wet, as moisture can damage the texture and reduce their lifespan. If the suede becomes flattened over time, you can gently use a soft wire brush to restore the nap.
