Are these shoes made of leather?

Does the ankle strap provide good support?
Yes, the adjustable ankle strap is designed to keep your foot secure within the shoe, providing added stability.
How do I clean my suede pumps?

Troubleshooting
Strap feels too loose
Adjust the buckle to a tighter setting, or visit a cobbler to add an extra hole for a more precise fit.
Suede looks dusty or flattened
Gently use a soft-bristled suede brush in a consistent direction to restore the natural nap of the fabric.
Heel tip wearing down
Take the shoes to a professional repair shop to have the heel taps replaced before the block material itself is damaged.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Stuart Weitzman Babette pumps, always store them in a cool, dry place inside their dust bag when not in use. Use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dust and maintain the nap of the material. Avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or damp conditions, as suede can easily absorb moisture and develop spots. If you need a more secure fit, ensure the ankle strap is fastened snugly against the ankle bone without restricting circulation. For professional cleaning, consult a specialist cobbler who works with fine luxury footwear.
