FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for walking long distances?

While the ALEYA line is designed for everyday comfort, they are intended for standard daily activities rather than long-distance hiking.

How should I clean the braided leather design?

Use a soft brush to remove debris from between the braids, followed by a light application of leather cream.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Vagabond Shoemakers generally follow standard sizing; however, since it is leather, it may feel snug initially before stretching slightly.

Can these shoes be worn in the rain?

Leather is susceptible to water damage; it is recommended to apply a water-repellent spray, but avoid submerging them in water.

What is the best way to store these shoes?

Store in a well-ventilated area using wooden shoe trees to absorb moisture and keep the leather supple.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff initially

Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot naturally.

Scuff marks on the surface

Use a leather-matching cream polish and a soft cloth to gently buff out minor scuffs and restore the black finish.

Staining on leather

Use a specialized leather cleaner applied to a clean cloth, dabbing the affected area gently rather than rubbing vigorously.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

New leather shoes should be treated with a protective spray prior to first use to guard against moisture and dirt. For regular maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dust. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking. To maintain the sheen and flexibility of the braided details, apply a high-quality leather conditioner periodically. Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally using shoe trees to help maintain the original shape and prevent creasing.
