FAQs
What is nappa leather?
Nappa leather is a very soft, fine-grained leather known for its smooth texture and durability. It's often used in luxury goods.
How should I clean the hand-painted heel?
The hand-painted horn heel should be cleaned gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid any abrasive materials or cleaning solutions.
Are these suitable for everyday wear?
While made from durable leather, the unique heel design and delicate materials make them best suited for occasions rather than rigorous daily use.
What does 'antiqued' leather mean?
Antiqued leather has been treated to give it a distressed or aged appearance, often with darker tones in the creases and lighter tones on the raised areas, creating a vintage look.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear these mules in wet weather, as moisture can damage the leather and affect the antiqued finish and heel.
What is included with the purchase?
The product includes the pair of mules and a shoe box.
Where are these mules made?
These mules are made in Italy, signifying high-quality craftsmanship.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or dull
Apply a suitable leather conditioner to restore moisture and shine. Ensure you are using a product appropriate for nappa leather.
Slight scuff marks on the heel
For minor scuffs on the hand-painted heel, try gently buffing with a very soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, professional leather repair may be necessary.
Unusual creasing on the leather
Creasing is natural with leather. Ensure proper fit to minimize excessive creasing. Store them correctly to help maintain their shape.
Water spots or stains on the leather
Blot excess moisture immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Allow to air dry naturally away from heat. For persistent stains, consult a professional leather cleaner.
