FAQs
What material are the Havisham Edge Loafers made from?
The upper is crafted from premium navy patent leather. The outsole is made of durable rubber.
Are these loafers comfortable for all-day wear?

How high is the heel?
The loafers have a low stack-effect heel measuring 35mm.
Can I remove the footbed?
Yes, the Contour Cushion footbed is removable, allowing for airing or insertion of custom orthotics if desired.
How should I clean the patent leather?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For maintaining shine and addressing marks, use a specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly.
Are these shoes suitable for both formal and casual occasions?
Absolutely. Their classic design with signature tassels and premium finish makes them versatile enough for office wear, smart casual outings, and other everyday situations.
Do these loafers provide good grip?
Yes, they are equipped with a durable rubber outsole which provides reliable traction on various surfaces.
Will the patent leather crease or scuff easily?
Like all leather, patent leather can crease with wear. While durable, it can show scuffs if rubbed against abrasive surfaces. Proper care and storage can help minimize these issues.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable initially
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house. The removable Contour Cushion footbed will also mold to your foot over time.
Loss of shine on patent leather
Gently wipe the patent leather with a soft, clean, damp cloth. For stubborn marks or to restore shine, use a specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly, buffing gently with a clean, dry cloth.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
The durable rubber outsole is designed for good traction. If you encounter extremely smooth or wet surfaces, exercise caution. For persistent issues, an authorized cobbler may be able to add extra grip.
Footbed feels less supportive over time
The Contour Cushion footbed is designed for lasting comfort. If you feel it has lost its support, remove it and check for wear. As it's removable, you have the option to replace it or insert custom orthotics if preferred.

Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your premium navy patent leather loafers, follow these care guidelines:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the patent leather regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. For patent leather, a specialized patent leather cleaner can be used occasionally to maintain its shine.
- Protect from Scuffs: While durable, patent leather can scuff. Avoid abrasive surfaces. If scuffs occur, a small amount of petroleum jelly or patent leather conditioner can sometimes buff them out gently.
- Water Exposure: Although durable, minimize prolonged exposure to heavy rain. If they get wet, blot dry with a clean cloth and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Storage: When not in use, store your loafers in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape and prevent creasing. Keep them away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
- Footbed Care: The removable Contour Cushion footbed can be taken out and aired regularly to maintain freshness. If heavily soiled, it can be gently wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air-dried completely before reinserting.
