FAQs

Should I size up in these shoes?

Yes, the product description explicitly recommends sizing up in this style for the best fit.

What are the shoes made of?

The exterior is 100% cotton velvet, the interior lining is 100% organic cotton with antibacterial treatment, and the sole is eco-friendly rubber sourced from recycled bicycle tires.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Mary Jane style and buckle closure offer some adjustability. However, specific width fitting information is not provided. It's recommended to consider the sizing up advice for overall comfort.

How do I clean the velvet exterior?

Gently brush the velvet with a soft brush. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and blot carefully. Avoid soaking.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the sole offers some water resistance, velvet is not ideal for prolonged exposure to moisture. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain the material's quality.

What is the heel height?

The product description refers to them as 'heels & pumps' and mentions a 'precise, recognizable, and balanced silhouette,' implying a moderate heel. Specific measurements are not provided but they are not flat shoes.

Is the sole truly non-slip?

The sole is constructed from recycled bicycle tires and is described as eco-friendly and non-slip. However, like any footwear, grip can be affected by surface conditions and wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

As the product description recommends, try sizing up. Velvet can also soften slightly with wear, but if they are significantly too small, consider exchanging for a larger size.

Velvet material looks matted or discolored

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently brush the nap of the velvet. Avoid excessive moisture or harsh chemicals. Store them away from direct sunlight.

Buckle is difficult to fasten or unfasten

Ensure the buckle prong is aligned with the correct hole. If the buckle feels stiff, it may loosen with gentle use. Do not force it.

Slipping on smooth surfaces

While the recycled tire sole is designed to be non-slip, ensure the sole is clean and dry. If the issue persists, consider consulting a cobbler for added grip solutions.

Care Instructions:

  • Velvet Upper: Gently brush the velvet with a soft-bristled brush in the direction of the nap to maintain its texture. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and blot carefully. Avoid soaking the velvet.
  • Lining: The organic cotton lining can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth if needed. Ensure the interior dries completely before wearing.
  • Sole: The recycled rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Ensure it is dry before use to maintain its non-slip properties.
