FAQs
Are the Aurix shoes true to size?
Yes, they are designed to fit standard UK adult sizing, though the square-toe shape provides extra room in the toe box compared to traditional models.
Can I use standard shoe polish on these?
No. Standard polish is designed for smooth, matte, or oily leathers and may strip the unique Satin Finish of the Aurix series.
Are these shoes unisex?
While some variants are gender-specific in their listing, the design architecture is neutral, and many sizes are suitable for any gender depending on foot width.
How do I maintain the flexible rubber sole?
Clean the rubber edges with warm soapy water and a soft-bristled brush to remove grime that could cause premature wear.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
The leather is durable, but the satin finish is best preserved by avoiding heavy rain and puddles.
What is the purpose of the square toe?
The square-toe shape is an archival 00s design choice that also serves an ergonomic function by allowing more natural toe splay.
Troubleshooting
Leather finish appears dull or dusty
Gently wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh brushes or abrasive cleaners.
Feeling tightness at the heel
Ensure the shoe is fully laced to lock your heel in place and wear medium-thickness socks to allow the leather to break in gradually.
Squeaking from the sole
This is often due to moisture trapped between the insole and the shoe base; remove the insole and allow both to air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first receive your Aurix shoes, ensure the fit is snug across the midfoot while allowing ample room for your toes due to the squared design. Because these are made of Satin Finish leather, do not use heavy waxes or standard polishes, as these can ruin the delicate sheen. Instead, wipe the shoes clean with a damp cloth after use to remove surface dirt and use a specialized leather protector spray intended for finished leathers. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the color and material integrity.
