FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The adjustable strap offers some flexibility, but the overall fit will depend on the width of your foot and the standard fit of the mule. It's recommended to try them on if possible.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
Due to the suede material, these mules are not recommended for wet weather. Moisture can damage the suede and lead to staining or discoloration.
How do I break in the mules?
Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. The hybrid sole is designed for comfort, and most users find them comfortable after a brief break-in phase.
What is the main benefit of the hybrid sole?
The hybrid sole combines the lightweight cushioning of EVA with the rugged durability of PVC, offering a comfortable yet long-lasting wear experience.
How do I clean the yellow welt stitching?
The yellow welt stitching is a decorative detail. It can be gently wiped with a damp cloth if needed. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods that could damage the thread.
Is the strap fully removable?
The strap is designed to be adjustable for fit and is not intended to be removed.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede eraser for spot cleaning. For general dirt, brush with a suede brush. Consider a professional suede cleaning service for stubborn stains. Apply a suede protector spray for future prevention.
Mules feel loose or insecure
Adjust the strap to a tighter setting for a more secure fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size for your foot.
Sole feels stiff initially
The hybrid sole may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.
Discoloration of suede
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Store in a shaded area. If discoloration occurs, a suede dye might be an option, but test in an inconspicuous area first.
