FAQs
Can these shoes be worn in the rain?
It is not recommended. Velvet is a delicate fabric that can be easily stained or ruined by water. Always keep these for dry, indoor formal occasions.
How should I store them?
Store them in a dust bag in a cool, dry area. Using shoe trees is recommended to help the shoe maintain its structured shape.
Are these shoes true to size?
The shoes are designed to standard UK sizing. If you typically wear a size 9, the size 9 should provide a comfortable, standard fit.
How do I clean the leather sole?
Wipe the soles with a damp cloth to remove dirt, then allow them to air dry completely before storing.
Can I polish the velvet?
No. Never use traditional shoe polish on velvet, as it will ruin the fabric and leave permanent marks.
What kind of outfit matches these best?
These pair exceptionally well with tailored slim-fit trousers, a tuxedo, or a dark evening suit.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or lint on the velvet
Gently use a soft-bristled garment brush moving in the direction of the fabric nap to lift and remove particles.
Slippery leather soles on new shoes
Wear the shoes on slightly rough outdoor pavement for a short period to scuff the soles, providing better traction.
Light scuffing on the velvet surface
Use a specialized velvet brush to gently re-align the fibers; avoid harsh liquid cleaners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Claudio Lugli shoes remain in peak condition, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the velvet fibers. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust after each wear; always brush in the direction of the nap to maintain the texture. Because these shoes feature leather soles, avoid walking in wet conditions to prevent staining the velvet or damaging the base. If you require additional cushioning for long events, consider using a thin, removable leather insole to maintain comfort without compromising the fit.
