FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for walking long distances?
While the 10 mm heel and rubber sole provide good support, they are primarily designed as dress shoes and are best suited for smart-casual wear rather than long-distance walking.
Can I wear these in rainy weather?
It is not recommended. Velvet is an absorbent material that can be damaged by water and staining. Keep them for dry-weather use.
How do I clean the fleece lining?
Keep the interior dry. If the lining requires cleaning, use a very slightly damp cloth to dab the surface and allow it to air dry fully before wearing.
What is the benefit of the elasticated collar?
The elasticated collar ensures the pump stays securely on your foot, preventing slipping at the heel while making them easy to slide on and off.
Is the heel height adjustable?
No, the 10 mm flat heel is a fixed part of the shoe's structure to ensure maximum stability and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the top
The elasticated collar is designed to stretch; ensure your foot is fully positioned, and the material may need a short break-in period to contour to your foot shape.
Visible dust or lint on the velvet
Use a lint roller or a soft-bristled garment brush moving in the direction of the velvet nap to gently lift away particles.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these shoes utilize a delicate velvet upper, proper care is essential. To maintain the material, store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. If the velvet becomes slightly matted, use a soft-bristled brush in the direction of the nap to restore its texture. Avoid exposure to heavy rain or mud, as velvet is difficult to clean once saturated. If they become dusty, a light puff of compressed air or a gentle wipe with a dry microfiber cloth is recommended to remove surface debris.
