Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Delapre loafers last for years, follow these care guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the structure to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt after every wear. Do not use standard leather polish.
- Stain Removal: Use a suede eraser for minor marks. For deeper cleaning, apply a dedicated suede cleaner foam.
- Storage: Store away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent the suede from fading or drying out. Use shoe trees to help maintain the loafer's shape.
- Compatibility: These shoes fit true to standard UK sizing, but consider thin to medium socks for the best fit.
