FAQs

What material are the Base London Strand shoes made from?

These specific shoes are made from soft suede uppers and feature an Ortholite insole for comfort. Other variants may be available in leather.

How should I clean my suede Strand shoes?

Use a suede brush for general cleaning and dirt removal. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and always test on a hidden area first. Avoid getting them wet.

Are these shoes suitable for formal events?

Yes, the refined derby design makes them suitable for many formal and semi-formal occasions, especially when paired with appropriate attire.

What is the main benefit of the Ortholite insole?

The Ortholite insole provides enhanced cushioning, breathability, and moisture management, contributing to all-day comfort.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the sizing guide and ensure your heel is snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box. The 3-eyelet closure allows for adjustment.

Can I wear these shoes in rainy weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions as water can damage the material and cause staining. Specialized waterproofing sprays for suede can offer some protection.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Gently brush with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material, following the product's instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoes feel uncomfortable after a short period.

Ensure you have the correct size. The Ortholite insole provides cushioning, but breaking in period may be needed. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Laces are worn or damaged.

Replace laces with a new pair of suitable length and color. This can instantly refresh the look of the shoe.
