FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Speedcat Ballet Mules are intended for lifestyle fashion wear and do not provide the structural support needed for running or high-intensity sports.
How do I determine the correct size?
The Speedcat Ballet Mules generally follow standard adult UK sizing. We recommend choosing your usual shoe size, keeping in mind the open-back design.
Can I get these wet?
It is best to avoid getting the leather wet. If they do get wet, pat them dry with a clean cloth and let them air dry away from direct heat sources.
Does the red colour fade over time?
Like all dyed leather products, keeping them out of direct, prolonged sunlight will help preserve the intensity of the red pigment.
Are these comfortable for all-day wear?
They are designed for casual daily use. While comfortable, the backless design means they may feel different from a fully enclosed shoe during extended periods of walking.
Troubleshooting
Elastic straps feeling too tight
Ensure the straps are laying flat against your foot without twisting; if they remain tight, allow the leather and elastic to naturally break in after a few wears.
Leather showing scuff marks
Use a specialized leather cleaning cream or a damp cloth to gently buff out minor surface scuffs.
Slipping while walking
Ensure your foot is pushed fully forward into the toe box and that your heel is centered; wearing them on smooth indoor surfaces initially can help you adjust to the mule fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As these are slip-on mules, there is no setup required; simply slide them on and ensure the crossover straps are positioned comfortably across your instep. Regarding compatibility, the Speedcat range generally fits true to size, though the open heel may feel slightly different than a standard shoe. To care for your leather mules, wipe them down regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the leather in water and use a leather conditioner periodically to prevent cracking or drying. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the vibrant red finish.
