FAQs

What is the heel height of these sandals?

The exact heel height is not specified but they are characteristic high-heel stilettos with a platform, typical of the Tribute line which often features heels around 120mm (4.7 inches) with a platform.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The intertwining strap design offers some adjustability across the foot, but the primary fit adjustment is via the ankle strap. Those with very wide feet may find the forefoot straps restrictive.

How do I clean the engraved detailing?

Gently wipe the engraved area with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid getting moisture or cleaning solutions directly into the engraved lines to prevent damage.

What material are the sandals made of?

The sandals are made from high-quality leather.

Can these sandals be worn in wet weather?

It is strongly advised not to wear these leather sandals in wet conditions as moisture can damage the leather and affect the structure of the shoe.

What does 'beveled platform' mean?

A beveled platform is one where the edge is cut at an angle, creating a visually appealing transition from the sole to the upper part of the platform.

How do I care for the covered heel?

Keep the covered heel clean by wiping with a soft cloth. Avoid dragging the heel on rough surfaces. If the leather covering is damaged, it's best to consult a professional cobbler for repair.

Troubleshooting

Ankle strap is difficult to fasten

Ensure the buckle is aligned correctly with the strap holes. If the leather is stiff, gently flex the strap to make it more pliable.

Straps feel uncomfortable

Adjust the ankle strap for a snug but not overly tight fit. Wear for short periods initially to allow the leather to mold to your foot.

Leather shows scuffs or marks

Use a leather cleaner specifically designed for the type of leather. For minor scuffs, a matching black shoe polish may help blend them in. Professional care may be needed for deeper damage.

Heel feels unstable

Ensure you are walking on stable surfaces. Practice walking in the sandals in a safe, clear area to improve balance. Consider professional heel tip replacement if worn.
