FAQs
How do I determine the right size?
The ALOHAS Rosalind Ballet Flats generally fit true to size. If you find yourself between sizes, we recommend opting for the smaller size for a more secure fit.
Can these be worn for long periods of walking?
Yes, the flat heel height (1cm/0.5") and flexible leather construction are designed for comfort during extended wear, making them suitable for daily activities.
What is the material of the sole?
The sole is made from 100% 'other materials', offering flexibility and durability for everyday use.
How should I clean the leather uppers?
Gently wipe the leather uppers with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner designed for the type of leather. It's best to avoid soaking the shoes.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The unstructured nature of the leather allows for some adaptation, but they are generally best suited for standard or narrower foot widths. Those with significantly wide feet might find them restrictive.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is 1cm, which is approximately 0.5 inches, providing a very low profile.
Where are these shoes made?
These shoes are proudly MADE IN PORTUGAL, reflecting quality European craftsmanship.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
The 100% leather is designed to mold to your foot over time. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in. If still uncomfortable and you are not between sizes, consider a size up.
Slipping at the heel
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If you are between sizes and chose the larger one, the elasticated back might need time to adjust, or you may need to consider a heel grip insert.
Scuff marks on the leather
For minor scuffs, try using a matching colored shoe cream or a specialized leather eraser. For deeper scuffs, consult a professional cobbler.
Leather feels dry
Apply a quality leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear to restore moisture and suppleness. Follow the product instructions.
