Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the synthetic materials offer some resistance, these pumps are not designed for heavy rain. It is best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions to maintain their appearance and longevity.
How do I clean the synthetic upper?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to gently stretch. Consider wearing thin socks. If tightness persists and is uncomfortable, they may not be the correct size.
Lace bow becomes detached
If the bow is still intact, it can often be re-secured by a professional shoe repair service or a skilled individual using fabric glue suitable for synthetics.
Slipping when walking
Ensure the sole is clean and dry. If the issue persists, consider adding a non-slip sole grip to the bottom of the shoe. Check that the size is correct and the shoe is not too large.
Material scuffing easily
For minor scuffs on synthetic materials, a specialized synthetic leather cleaner or a very mild, non-abrasive polish may help. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
