FAQs

What material are the GANNI Sue Polka Dot Ballet Flats made of?

They are made from 100% high-quality leather.

Can the large white bows be removed?

How should I clean these leather flats?

Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. It is also recommended to use a leather conditioner periodically.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The flats feature a classic ballerina silhouette. While leather can stretch slightly, they may not be ideal for individuals with significantly wide feet without a breaking-in period.

What is the sole made of?

The product information does not specify the sole material, but it is typically leather or a durable synthetic material for ballet flats.

Do these flats offer arch support?

These are classic ballet flats and generally offer minimal built-in arch support. For added support, consider using custom or store-bought insoles.

What is the difference between this and the GANNI Ballet Pumps?

Troubleshooting

Bows won't stay securely attached

Ensure the buckle mechanism on the instep is properly aligned and fastened. Check for any debris obstructing the buckle.

Leather appears dry or stiff

Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for calfskin leather. Allow it to absorb fully before wearing.

Scuff marks on the leather

For minor scuffs, try using a specialized leather cleaner or a mild saddle soap with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, professional leather repair may be necessary.

Slight discomfort on first wear

Leather shoes often require a breaking-in period. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Consider using thin insoles if more cushioning is needed.
