FAQs
What type of socks are best with these brogues?
Thin to medium-weight dress socks made of wool, silk, or a quality synthetic blend are recommended to maintain a formal look.
Can these brogues be worn in the rain?
While leather offers some protection, it is best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Ensure they are properly waterproofed and allow them to dry naturally if they get wet.
How often should I polish these shoes?
Polish your brogues approximately once a month or whenever they start to look dull or scuffed, depending on the frequency of wear.
What is the difference between brogues and oxfords?
Brogues are characterized by decorative perforations (broguing), while oxfords have a closed lacing system. These Emporio Armani shoes are brogues.
Are these shoes suitable for a wedding?
Yes, their sophisticated design and classic detailing make them an excellent choice for wedding guest attire or even for the groom.
What is the best way to store these leather brogues?
Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or dust bags, with shoe trees inserted to maintain their shape.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or cracked
Apply a generous amount of leather conditioner and allow it to soak in. Repeat if necessary and store properly.
Scuffs and scratches on the leather
Use a matching color leather polish to cover minor imperfections. For deeper scratches, consult a professional cobbler.
Water stains on the leather
Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat sources. Once dry, apply leather conditioner. Consider using a waterproof spray for future protection.
Loss of shape
Insert shoe trees into the shoes when not in use to help them retain their original shape.
