FAQs
What is the heel height of the Opyum 85 Sandals?
The heel height is 8.5cm, which is approximately 3.3 inches.
What materials are the sandals made from?
The upper is 100% Patent Calfskin, and the sole is 100% leather.
Are these sandals suitable for everyday wear?
No, these sandals are designed for sophisticated black-tie events, formal dinners, and elegant occasions rather than daily casual wear.
How do I clean the patent leather?
Gently wipe the patent calfskin with a soft, clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. For specific care, always refer to the product label.
How should I store these sandals?
Store them in their original dust bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and humidity, to protect the materials.
Is the ankle strap adjustable?
Yes, the sandals feature an adjustable ankle strap, allowing you to customize the fit for comfort and security.
Troubleshooting
Ankle strap feels uncomfortable or loose.
Adjust the buckle on the ankle strap. Ensure it is snug enough to hold your foot securely without being overly tight. There are multiple holes for fine-tuning the fit.
Slipping on smooth surfaces.
The 100% leather sole may be smooth. Walk carefully on polished floors. Consider having a cobbler apply a thin, discreet non-slip sole protector to the forefoot for added traction.
Minor scuffs or marks on the patent calfskin.
Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, clean, slightly damp cloth. For more persistent marks, a dedicated patent leather cleaner can be applied sparingly with a soft cloth, then buffed dry.

Care
Proper care is essential to maintain the pristine condition of your Saint Laurent Opyum 85 Sandals, given their premium materials:
- Cleaning Patent Calfskin: Gently wipe the patent calfskin upper with a soft, clean, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the patent finish. For stubborn marks, a specialized patent leather cleaner can be used sparingly, following the product's instructions.
- Cleaning Leather Sole: The leather sole should be kept dry. If it becomes wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Storage: When not in use, store the sandals in their original dust bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. This protects them from dust and minimizes the risk of scuffs or discoloration.
- Heel Protection: Consider professional sole protectors to prolong the life of the leather sole, especially if you anticipate frequent wear on rough surfaces.
- Professional Care: For any significant damage or deep scuffs, consult a professional shoe repair specialist experienced with luxury footwear.
