FAQs
Are these loafers true to size?
Yes, the ALOHAS Brandy Loafers are designed to fit true to size. If you find yourself between sizes, we recommend choosing the smaller size for a snugger fit.
What material are the loafers made of?
The loafers are constructed with 100% premium leather for the uppers, lining, and cushioning. The sole is made of 100% rubber.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is 2cm, which is approximately 1 inch, providing a comfortable lift.
Can I wear these loafers in wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, the leather uppers are not inherently waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and consider using a leather waterproofing spray for protection against light moisture.
How should I clean and care for the leather?
Gently wipe with a dry cloth for dust. Use a damp cloth for dirt and allow to air dry. Periodically use a leather conditioner to maintain suppleness and prevent drying. Always test products on an inconspicuous area first.
What does 'crinkled toe detail' mean?
This refers to a unique textural finish on the toe area of the loafer, giving it a slightly creased or gathered appearance that adds a distinctive design element.
Where are these loafers manufactured?
The ALOHAS Brandy Loafers are expertly made in Portugal.
Troubleshooting
Loafers feel tight on first wear.
Leather will naturally stretch. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in. If still too tight and you are not between sizes, consider a professional stretching service.
Scuff marks on the leather.
Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a leather cleaner or a colored shoe polish that matches the loafer's color, followed by buffing.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes occur due to friction. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the heel area.
Discoloration of the silver buckle.
Gently clean the buckle with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish.
