FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing, but because they are open-backed, ensure the buckle is tightened correctly for your foot length.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Suede is porous and can be damaged by water. If they get wet, air dry them slowly.
How do I care for the suede material?
Use a suede protector spray, keep them away from deep mud, and use a suede brush to clean them regularly.
Are the buckles adjustable?
Yes, the slingback straps feature adjustable metal buckles to help you customize the fit to your heel.
Is the sole slippery?
The Zebzag series is designed with a durable, grip-focused outsole suitable for most standard everyday surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a specialized suede brush or a soft nylon brush to gently brush the fibers back into place.
Strap feels tight or causes irritation
Adjust the buckle to a looser setting or consider using a heel blister pad during the initial break-in phase.
Water spots on suede
Allow the shoe to air dry naturally away from heat sources, then lightly brush the surface with a suede brush once completely dry.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Adjustable straps for a secure, custom fit

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best initial experience, ensure the buckle is set to a tension that holds your heel securely without causing chafing. Because the upper is constructed from suede, it is highly recommended to use a suede-specific protective spray before your first wear to repel water and stains. To clean, use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift dirt and restore the nap of the material; avoid using liquid cleaners or soaking the shoes. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading, especially given the vibrant red finish.
