FAQs

What is the heel height of the Orianna Bit?

The heel height is 45mm, providing a subtle platform effect.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Orianna Bit has a standard construction, but the leather tends to soften and mold to the foot over time.

Can I wear these with tights?

Yes, they are designed to pair perfectly with tights and skirts for a trendy, 90s-inspired look.

How do I clean the rubber outsole?

You can clean the rubber outsole using a soft brush and warm soapy water to remove debris and stains.

Does the horsebit hardware tarnish?

The hardware is designed for durability, but it is best to avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.

Is the footbed removable?

The Contour Cushion footbed is integrated into the design for consistent support and is not intended to be removed.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels too stiff during initial wear

Wear the shoes for short intervals at home with thick socks to gently stretch and soften the leather before wearing them for a full day.

Heel slippage while walking

Ensure the shoe is laced or fitted snugly; if minor slippage persists, consider adding a thin adhesive heel grip inside the back of the shoe.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design pairs well with both casual dresses and professional attire
  • Lightweight EVA midsole prevents the heavy feel often associated with chunky shoes
  • Leather-lined footbed provides enhanced comfort for extended wear
  • Robust rubber outsole offers reliable grip and durability

Cons

  • The 45mm platform height may not be suitable for those preferring completely flat shoes
  • The structured leather may require a short breaking-in period
  • Available in specific sizing that may feel different than sneaker sizing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are premium leather shoes, proper care is essential to maintain the finish of the black upper. Wipe the leather clean with a damp cloth after use to remove dirt or dust. Use a high-quality leather cream or polish periodically to nourish the material and prevent cracking. When storing, keep them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees if possible to maintain the shape of the toe box. Since these fit true to a standard UK 8, ensure you are wearing them with the weight of your body to allow the leather to naturally conform to your foot shape during the first few wears.
