FAQs
How do I clean these shoes?
Gently wipe the faux leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For more persistent marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth. Allow to air dry.
Are these shoes comfortable for all-day wear?
The wide fit construction is designed for enhanced comfort, making them suitable for long periods at the office or during events. However, due to the high stiletto heel (7-9cm), occasional breaks may be needed for very prolonged standing or walking.
What occasions are these shoes suitable for?
They are versatile and ideal for professional office environments, business meetings, evening events, dinner dates, and special occasions like weddings or baby showers.
What is the heel height?
The heel measures between 7 and 9cm, offering significant elegant height.
Are these shoes made from vegan materials?
Yes, the shoes feature a faux leather upper, which means they are not made from animal leather.
How can I prevent my feet from slipping forward in the shoe?
If your foot slips forward, try using ball-of-foot cushions or gel pads, which can provide extra grip and cushioning in the toe area, keeping your foot in place.
Do I need to break in these shoes?
While the wide fit helps, it is always recommended to wear new shoes for short periods around the house before wearing them for an extended time, to allow them to conform to your foot shape.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or cause rubbing, despite being wide fit
Allow for a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house. Consider using thin socks or nylon foot protectors initially. For specific pressure points, apply moleskin or gel pads to the inside of the shoe.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
The faux leather sole can be smooth. Consider applying non-slip sole pads or having a cobbler add a thin rubber sole for better grip.
Scuffs or marks on the faux leather
Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For light scuffs, a small amount of clear faux leather polish or a neutral shoe cream can sometimes help. Avoid abrasive rubbing.
Heel tip wears down quickly
This is common with stiletto heels. Replace worn heel tips promptly to protect the heel structure. Most cobblers can do this quickly and affordably.

Cons
High Heel Challenge: The 7-9cm stiletto heel may not be comfortable for extended periods of standing or walking for all users.
Faux Leather Breathability: May offer less breathability compared to genuine leather, potentially leading to warmer feet.
Pointed Toe Fit: While wide fit, the pointed toe shape might still be restrictive for some specific foot anatomies.

Compatibility: Designed for adult female users, compatible with formal, business casual, and semi-formal attire. Best paired with hosiery or bare feet depending on personal preference and outfit.
Care Instructions:
Cleaning: Wipe the faux leather upper gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the material.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture. Keep them in a shoe bag to protect them from dust and scuffs.
Protection: For added longevity, you may use a faux leather protector spray, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.
