FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The leather construction allows for some natural give, but the strappy design is generally tailored to a standard width. We recommend trying them on in the afternoon when your feet are at their largest.
How do I clean the leather?
Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe away dust. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner and follow up with a conditioner to keep the material supple.
Can I replace the heel tips?
Yes, like most quality shoes with a block heel, a cobbler can easily replace the rubber heel tips once they show signs of wear.
Is the heel height comfortable for walking?
The block heel is specifically chosen to redistribute weight more evenly than a stiletto, making it comfortable for moderate walking.
What is the material composition?
These sandals are constructed primarily from leather, providing a high-quality, durable finish that ages well with proper care.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel tight during the first few wears
Leather will naturally soften and stretch with body heat; try wearing them for short periods around your home with socks to break them in gently.
Slingback strap slipping off the heel
Check the buckle adjustment to ensure it is tightened to the appropriate notch; if it continues to slip, consider using a gel heel grip insert.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your first wear, it is recommended to apply a leather protector spray to guard against minor scuffs and water stains. Because these are leather, they should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the material from drying out or fading. If the shoes get wet, wipe them down immediately with a soft, dry cloth and let them air dry naturally away from artificial heat sources like radiators. Ensure you are wearing the correct UK size 6.5 to prevent premature stretching of the straps.
