FAQs
Are these flats suitable for wide feet?
The Nellie Flex features a structured leather construction; while it softens over time, those with wider feet may find the standard fit quite snug.
Can I wear these for long walks?
These are designed as fashion flats. While comfortable for daily use, they lack the arch support found in specialized walking or athletic shoes.
How should I store them to avoid shape distortion?
Use shoe trees or stuff the toes with acid-free tissue paper when not in use to maintain their shape.
Is the leather waterproof?
No, this is natural leather and should be protected from heavy rain. If they get wet, air dry them naturally away from heat sources.
Does the buckle provide real adjustment?
Yes, the buckle is functional and allows for a customized fit around the instep.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff upon first wear
Wear the flats for short periods at home with thicker socks to gently stretch and soften the leather.
Minor scuffs on the leather surface
Apply a small amount of leather cream that matches the brown finish to buff out minor surface abrasions.
Studs appearing dull
Use a specialized jewelry or metal polishing cloth to restore the shine to the dome-shaped hardware.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nellie Flex flats remain in top condition, follow these care steps:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris.
- Stain Treatment: Use a high-quality leather conditioner or cream specifically designed for smooth leather to maintain hydration and shine.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from drying out or fading.
- Hardware Maintenance: Gently buff the dome-shaped studs with a microfiber cloth; avoid harsh chemicals that might cause discoloration of the metal.
- Fit Check: Ensure the buckle is adjusted to keep the foot secure, preventing excessive rubbing against the heel.
