FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the woven construction is not designed to be water-resistant. It is recommended to avoid wearing these in heavy rain or deep puddles.
How should I clean the woven upper?
Clean with a soft brush to remove dust and debris. If needed, wipe lightly with a slightly damp cloth, but ensure the leather is left to dry naturally away from direct heat.
Do these loafers run true to size?
The Riverside loafers generally align with standard UK sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find the leather stretches comfortably over time.
Can I wear these without socks?
Yes, they are designed to be comfortable for sockless wear, though a low-cut 'invisible' sock is recommended to manage moisture and maintain hygiene.
Are these suitable for formal weddings?
These are best categorized as smart-casual. They are excellent for summer or beach weddings but may be too informal for strictly black-tie events.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels slightly stiff upon initial wear
Leather is a natural material that will soften with heat and movement. Wear them for short durations indoors to 'break them in' before long-distance walking.
Debris stuck in the woven pattern
Use a soft, dry horsehair brush to gently sweep away particles. Do not use sharp objects to poke at the weave.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Riverside loafers last, follow these guidelines:
- Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent the leather from drying out.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove any dirt trapped within the woven sections. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner sparingly once every few months to maintain the suppleness of the woven upper.
- Compatibility: These shoes pair best with slim-fit or tailored-fit trousers that highlight the loafer's profile without covering the woven detail.
