FAQs

Are these mules true to size?

Based on general feedback for this style, they are typically true to size. However, individual fit can vary. It's recommended to consult the size chart and consider your foot width.

How should I clean the patent leather?

Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap and water solution, followed by a clean damp cloth, and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear leather-soled shoes in wet conditions as it can damage the leather and make them slippery. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally.

What should I do about the slippery leather sole?

The leather sole can be slippery when new. You can wear them in gradually on carpeted surfaces or opt to have a rubber sole protector professionally fitted by a cobbler for better grip and longevity.

What is included with the purchase?

The Paris Texas Lidia 105 mules typically include a dust bag and a branded shoe box for storage and protection.

Are these mules suitable for wide feet?

These mules have a standard width. If you have wider feet, they might feel snug. Trying them on or checking specific customer reviews regarding fit for wider feet is advisable.

How can I maintain the shine of the patent leather?

Regularly wipe with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For extra shine, you can use a specialized patent leather cleaner or polish, following the product instructions carefully.

Troubleshooting

Mules feel stiff or uncomfortable

Wear the mules for short periods initially to allow the leather to soften and mold to your feet. Consider using a heel grip or insert for added comfort.

Slippery sole

Walk carefully on smooth surfaces. Consider applying a rubber sole protector or having one professionally fitted by a cobbler for improved traction and durability.

Scuffs or scratches on patent leather

For minor scuffs, try buffing gently with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper scratches, a patent leather repair kit or professional restoration may be needed.

Leather creasing

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather. Avoid over-flexing the shoe. Proper storage can help maintain shape.
