FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, but leather can stretch slightly over time to accommodate the shape of your foot.
Can I wear these without socks?
While you can, it is recommended to use low-cut 'invisible' socks to manage moisture and maintain the hygiene of the leather lining.
Are these suitable for formal events?
Yes, their smart silhouette and premium finish make them highly appropriate for most formal and smart-casual occasions.
How do I protect them from rain?
Apply a leather-safe water-repellent spray, though it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy downpours to prevent water damage.
What is the best way to store them?
Store in a cool, dry place using cedar shoe trees to help the leather breathe and maintain its structural integrity.
Troubleshooting
The leather feels stiff after initial wear
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner to soften the material and allow for a natural break-in period.
Surface scuffs appearing on the upper
Use a matching black leather cream and a soft buffing cloth to gently polish out minor abrasions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Quill shoes maintain their look, apply a high-quality leather cream or polish specifically formulated for black leather periodically. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources such as radiators, which can crack the leather. Use a shoe horn when putting them on to maintain the integrity of the heel counter. Store them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees when not in use to preserve their shape and absorb residual moisture.
