FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Cabrino series features a standard fit. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to opt for the larger size and use a thin insole if needed.

How should I clean my Cabrino loafers?

Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt, then apply a leather conditioner followed by a black shoe polish.

Is the leather sustainably sourced?

Yes, the Cabrino collection uses Leather Working Group-certified leather, ensuring it meets strict environmental and ethical production standards.

Can I wear these without socks?

While the premium leather lining is comfortable, it is recommended to wear thin no-show socks to manage perspiration and protect the longevity of the insole.

Are these shoes good for rainy weather?

They are designed for formal and professional wear and are not waterproof. If exposed to heavy rain, wipe them dry immediately and allow them to dry away from direct heat.

Troubleshooting

The shoes feel too stiff upon the first wear

This is normal for high-quality leather. Wear them for short durations indoors for the first few days to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot shape.

Scuffs appearing on the leather surface

Use a high-quality black shoe cream or wax polish to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore the original luster of the leather.

Heel slippage while walking

If the fit is slightly loose, try using a thin leather heel grip or an insole liner to improve the secure hold of the shoe.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, certified leather materials
  • Versatile and timeless design
  • Easy slip-on convenience
  • Sophisticated aesthetic for formal occasions

Cons

  • Requires a break-in period common with leather shoes
  • Not intended for athletic or high-impact activities
  • Black leather requires regular polishing to maintain shine

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shoes are ready to wear out of the box, but you may want to apply a leather protector spray before the first use to shield against light moisture. To maintain the life of your Cabrinos, always use a shoe horn when putting them on to prevent crushing the heel counter. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can crack the leather. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature with cedar shoe trees inserted to help absorb excess moisture and maintain the shape of the leather.
