FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the Aurix 5i features a wider, squared shape that provides more ergonomic space compared to traditional narrow leather shoes.
How do I clean the red leather?
Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth and apply a leather-specific cream to maintain the colour and prevent the material from drying out.
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the leather is durable and the rubber sole provides protection from light moisture, they are not classified as fully waterproof.
Does the shoe size run true?
The Aurix 5i generally runs true to standard UK adult sizing, though the wide box-toe shape may offer a roomier feel.
Can I replace the insole?
The shoes come with an extra-cushioned insole designed for comfort, though you may replace it with orthotics if necessary.
What gender are these shoes for?
The Aurix 5i is categorized as a versatile shoe, with many sizes labeled as male-specific and others as unisex.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff upon first wear
Apply a leather conditioner and wear the shoes for short periods with thick socks to gently stretch the material.
Visible scuffs on the sole
The rubber sole is designed for durability; minor marks can often be removed with a damp cloth or a mild rubber eraser.
Heel slippage
Ensure the laces are tied securely or consider adding a thin adhesive heel grip inside the back of the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these shoes are crafted from premium leather, it is recommended to wear them for short durations initially to allow the material to soften to your foot's shape. To maintain the vibrant red finish, use a quality neutral or red-tinted leather cream periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Avoid submerging the shoes in water; if they get wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources to preserve the leather integrity. Ensure you are using the correct UK sizing, as the ergonomic wide fit is designed to correspond directly with standard UK adult foot measurements.
