Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard sizing; however, since they are leather, a snug fit is often preferred as they will loosen slightly.

Can I wear these for long periods?

Yes, they are designed for extended wear, though comfort levels vary based on your personal tolerance for heels.

How do I clean the black leather?

Wipe with a damp cloth to remove dirt, then apply a quality leather conditioner to keep the material supple.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The ALEYA series features a standard fit; those with very wide feet might find them restrictive.

Does the leather require waterproofing?

While not strictly required, applying a light leather-safe water repellent can protect the material from unexpected rain.

Troubleshooting

The leather feels stiff upon first wear

Wear them indoors for short periods with thick socks to gently stretch the material.

Scuff marks appearing on the leather

Use a matching black leather polish or cream to buff out minor surface scuffs.

Heel clicking is too loud on hard surfaces

Consult a local cobbler to have the heel tip replaced with a softer rubber-based cap.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, durable leather construction
  • Sophisticated and minimalist aesthetic
  • Suitable for a wide range of professional and social occasions
  • Reliable craftsmanship ensures long-term wear

Cons

  • Leather material requires initial break-in time
  • Limited to black colorway in the ALEYA series
  • Requires consistent leather care to maintain finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ALEYA pumps last for years, proper care is essential. Since the upper is genuine leather, it is recommended to apply a neutral leather cream or conditioner periodically to prevent drying and cracking. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place and use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the structural integrity of the heel and toe box. For compatibility, these pumps function best with standard-width feet. If you are between sizes, consider the nature of the leather; while it will stretch slightly, it will not expand drastically. If the shoes get wet, wipe them down with a soft, dry cloth immediately and let them air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the material from hardening.
