FAQs
Are these pumps true to size?
Generally, luxury Italian footwear runs standard to slightly slim. If you are between sizes, it is often recommended to size up half a size for a more comfortable fit.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. The leather upper and leather sole can be damaged by water exposure and salt.
What is the best way to clean the studs?
Gently wipe the gold-toned hardware with a dry, soft microfiber cloth to remove fingerprints and dust.
What does the package include?
The product includes the shoes, a branded dust bag for storage, and the original manufacturer shoe box.
Is the heel comfortable for long-distance walking?
While the 4 cm heel is very stable, these are primarily dress shoes and are not designed for long-distance walking on hard or uneven surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff upon first wear
Wear the pumps for short periods indoors with thin socks to help the leather gradually mold to your foot shape.
Minor scuffs on the leather exterior
Use a matching black leather cream and buff gently with a soft cotton cloth.
Heel tip wearing down
Visit a professional cobbler to have the rubber heel tip replaced as soon as you notice signs of significant wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Rockstud pumps maintain their condition, follow these care instructions:
- Storage: Always store the pumps in the included dust bag when not in use to protect the leather from dust and light scratches.
- Leather Care: Use a high-quality leather cream or conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Use a soft cloth to buff away surface marks.
- Hardware Maintenance: The gold-toned studs should be wiped gently with a soft, dry cloth to prevent oxidation and maintain their shine. Avoid using abrasive chemicals on the hardware.
- Sole Protection: Since the soles are made of leather, consider taking them to a professional cobbler to add a rubber "topy" or sole protector if you plan on wearing them frequently outdoors, as this will significantly extend the life of the shoe.
