FAQs

What is the best way to store these shoes?

Store them in the provided dust bag and original shoe box to protect them from dust, light, and accidental scuffs.

Are the studs prone to falling off?

The studs are secured using high-quality Italian craftsmanship. However, avoid scraping the shoes against rough surfaces to keep them in place.

Can these be worn in rainy weather?

It is not recommended to wear these flats in heavy rain as water can damage the fine leather and tarnish the brass hardware.

How do I choose the right size?

These shoes follow standard adult sizing. If you are between sizes, consider the structure of the almond-toe design and your preference for a snug or slightly relaxed fit.

Does the red color fade easily?

The leather is dyed with high-quality pigments, but keeping the shoes out of direct, intense sunlight when not being worn will help maintain the color's richness.

Troubleshooting

The strap feels too loose or too tight

Utilize the adjustable strap mechanism to find the secure setting that matches your foot width.

Slight discomfort during initial wear

Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot.

Surface scuffs on the leather

Use a high-quality leather conditioner or a soft microfiber cloth to gently buff out minor surface marks.
