FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adults, but the fit can feel snug initially due to the leather construction.
Can I wear these in the rain?
They are leather shoes, so while they handle light moisture well, they are not waterproof. Use a leather protectant spray for added resistance.
How do I clean the white welt stitching?
Use a soft-bristled brush with a mild soap solution to gently scrub the yellow stitching if it becomes discolored.
Does the padded collar help with blisters?
Yes, the padded collar is specifically designed to cushion the heel and ankle area to prevent chafing.
Can I replace the insoles?
While the shoes come with a comfortable interior, you can replace the insoles with custom orthotics if preferred.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff during the first wear
This is normal for Analine leather. Try wearing thicker socks for the first few days to protect your feet while the leather softens.
Scuffs appearing on the leather surface
Use a high-quality leather balm or brown polish to buff out minor scuffs and restore the material's original luster.
Difficulty keeping the laces tied
The laces may be waxed; ensure you pull them tight before tying, or use a double knot until the laces have settled.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Lowell shoes remain in peak condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear the shoes for short periods around the house before taking them on long walks to let the leather soften.
- Cleaning: Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth. Use a neutral or brown shoe polish specifically designed for leather to maintain the Analine finish.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading.
- Weatherproofing: While the leather is robust, applying a leather protector spray can help guard against minor water exposure.
