FAQs

Do these loafers fit true to size?

What is the sole height of these loafers?

How should I care for the calfskin leather?
Clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Periodically condition with a leather conditioner and consider using a protective spray. Store with shoe trees.
What is the 'Florio ideal shape'?
The 'Florio ideal shape' refers to the specific last and construction used for these loafers, designed to provide a comfortable and refined fit.
Can I wear these loafers in wet weather?
While the natural rubber sole offers some protection, it is best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain as calfskin can be damaged by excessive moisture. Use protective sprays and allow them to dry naturally if they get wet.

Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for calfskin. Use sparingly and follow product instructions.
Slight scuffs or marks on the leather
Gently buff the affected area with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, a colored shoe cream matching the black color may be used, followed by buffing.
Loafers feel slightly tight initially
Leather will naturally stretch slightly with wear. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to conform to your foot shape. A leather shoe stretcher can also be used cautiously.
Water spots on the leather
Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, condition the leather to restore suppleness and appearance.
