FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Portman model features a standard fit. While the leather will naturally flex over time, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them restrictive without a proper break-in period.

What is the material composition?

The shoes are primarily made of premium leather uppers with a synthetic lining and a flexible sole construction. Specific material details can be found on the product's care label.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the leather is durable, it is not inherently waterproof. We recommend treating the shoes with a waterproofing spray and avoiding prolonged exposure to heavy rain to maintain their condition.

How do I clean the insoles?

The insoles are generally not designed for removal. For cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and mild soap solution, ensuring not to saturate the material. Allow to air dry completely.

What is the difference between the 'Portman' and 'Portman Leather Derby' titles?

The core shoe model is the Portman. 'Portman Leather Derby' likely refers to a specific iteration or naming convention used by the retailer for this particular style of low shoe made from leather.

Where are these shoes manufactured?

These Hudson Portman shoes are individually hand finished in Portugal.

What is the warranty period for these shoes?

Please refer to the retailer's or manufacturer's official warranty information, as this is typically provided separately from product guides and can vary.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable on first wear.

This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods indoors to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period.

Leather appears dry or dull.

Apply a suitable leather conditioner according to product instructions. This will help restore moisture and shine to the leather.

Scuff marks on the leather.

Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a leather repair kit or consult a professional cobbler.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

New shoe soles can sometimes be slippery. Lightly scuffing the soles on a rough surface or using a sole grip product can improve traction.
