FAQs
What is the heel height of the Babette Platform Pump?
The pump features a 100-mm (approximately 4-inch) block heel.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the shoes are made of suede, which is sensitive to water. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain and use a water-repellent suede spray for added protection.
Does the ankle strap provide enough support?
Yes, the adjustable ankle strap is designed to keep the foot secure within the shoe, providing stability that a traditional slip-on pump lacks.
Where are these shoes manufactured?
The Stuart Weitzman Babette Platform Pumps are expertly crafted in Spain.
Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?
While the platform helps with comfort, 100-mm heels are generally best suited for events rather than standing for many hours at a time.
How do I clean the suede?
Use a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for suede to gently buff away dirt and maintain the nap.
Troubleshooting
Ankle strap feels too tight or too loose
Adjust the buckle to the next hole to customize the tension across your ankle.
Suede appears dull or marked
Gently use a suede-specific brush to restore the nap of the material and remove minor scuffs.
Slippage while walking
Consider adding an adhesive silicone heel grip to the back inner heel to secure the foot in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Stuart Weitzman suede pumps in pristine condition, regular care is essential. Use a specialized suede brush to remove surface dust and dirt after each wear. If the suede becomes wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can damage the delicate material. For long-term storage, keep the shoes in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees to maintain their shape. Because the Babette features an adjustable strap, ensure the buckle is fastened comfortably—not too tight, to avoid skin irritation—before walking for extended periods.
