FAQs

What type of leather is used for the BARI shoes?

The BARI shoes are crafted from premium leather, known for its quality and durability.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The shoes are designed with a standard fit for women. Leather can stretch slightly over time, but for significantly wide feet, they may not be the most comfortable option without a break-in period.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

While the leather is durable, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. It's best to protect them with a waterproofing spray and avoid wearing them in wet conditions to maintain the leather's quality.

How often should I condition the leather?

It is recommended to condition the leather every 3-6 months, depending on wear and environmental conditions, to keep it moisturized and prevent drying.

What is the best way to store these shoes?

Store them in a dust bag or their original box in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees will help them retain their shape.

Do these shoes require any special cleaning products?

A soft, damp cloth is sufficient for general cleaning. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use products specifically designed for genuine leather.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs or marks on leather

Use a leather cleaner appropriate for black leather. For minor scuffs, a leather conditioner may be sufficient. Test any product on an inconspicuous area first.

Leather feels stiff

Apply a quality leather conditioner and wear the shoes for short periods to help them break in gradually. Avoid excessive moisture.

Discoloration from water

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a leather conditioner to restore moisture and color. Using a waterproofing spray beforehand can help prevent this.
