FAQs
Are these loafers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing; however, since leather stretches, ensure a snug fit initially.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Prolonged exposure to moisture can damage the leather upper and weaken the leather sole.
How do I polish the gold-tone hardware?
Use a soft, dry polishing cloth to wipe away fingerprints. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
What is the best way to store them?
Store them in the provided dust bag away from direct sunlight, ideally using wooden shoe trees.
Does the leather require special treatment?
Regular moisturizing with a high-quality leather cream is essential to keep the material supple and prevent drying.
Can I replace the sole once it wears out?
Yes, these loafers are constructed in a way that allows a cobbler to resole the shoe, extending its lifespan significantly.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff upon first wear
This is common with high-quality leather. Wear them indoors for short periods with thick socks to break them in gradually.
Scuffs on the leather surface
Use a matching leather cream or professional wax to gently buff out minor scuffs. For deeper scratches, consult a professional cobbler.
Sole is slippery on smooth floors
New leather soles can be slippery. Scuff the soles slightly on concrete or have a rubber half-sole installed by a cobbler for better grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your VLogo Signature Loafers remain in top condition, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place using shoe trees to help the leather maintain its shape and absorb residual moisture.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust after every wear. For deeper cleaning, use a leather-specific conditioner applied with a microfiber cloth.
- Protection: Consider applying a protective leather cream specifically formulated for high-end calfskin to prevent cracking.
- Sole Care: If you plan to wear these on slick surfaces, a professional cobbler can apply a thin rubber topy to the leather sole for added traction and longevity.
- Fitment: These are available in a variety of UK sizes from 7 to 10. Ensure you verify your size against the specific MPN to guarantee the best fit for your foot width.
