FAQs

What material is the Bracken loafer made from?

The upper is made from premium woven leather, and the lining is also leather. The outsole is made of resin.

Are these shoes suitable for formal events?

Yes, the refined design and tassel detail make them suitable for smart casual and semi-formal occasions. They can also be worn with suits for less formal events.

How do I clean the woven leather?

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated mild leather cleaner. Avoid soaking the leather.

What is the benefit of the Ortholite insole?

The Ortholite insole provides enhanced cushioning, breathability, and moisture management for superior all-day comfort.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the resin outsole offers some durability, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing these loafers in heavy rain. Consider using a waterproofing spray for added protection.

What sizes are available?

The Base London Bracken loafers are available in a range of UK adult men's sizes, typically from UK 5 to UK 12.

Where are these shoes manufactured?

These loafers are manufactured in India.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff or uncomfortable on first wear.

This is normal for new leather footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to gradually break them in. Applying a leather conditioner can also help soften the material.

Scuff marks on the leather.

For minor scuffs, try buffing with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a matching colour shoe polish or a leather repair balm, following product instructions.

Insole feels uneven after prolonged wear.

The Ortholite insole is designed for cushioning. Ensure no debris has become lodged within the shoe. If the cushioning feels permanently compressed, consider replacing the insole with a compatible alternative.

Shoe loses shape.

Use shoe trees when not wearing the loafers to help maintain their original shape and absorb moisture.

Pros and Cons

  • Premium leather construction offers durability and a sophisticated appearance.
  • Ortholite insole provides excellent cushioning for all-day comfort.
  • Classic tassel loafer design adds a refined touch to outfits.
  • Woven leather detail offers a unique style element.
  • Suitable for both smart-casual and more formal settings.

Cons

  • Leather may require a break-in period for optimal comfort.
  • Tassel detail might not suit all personal styles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

As footwear, the Base London Bracken loafers require no complex setup. Simply try them on for fit.

Compatibility:

These loafers are designed for adult men and are compatible with a wide range of clothing styles, from formal trousers to smart casual chinos and even tailored shorts in warmer weather. They are particularly well-suited for occasions demanding a more dressed-up appearance.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather uppers with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a mild leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Conditioning: Apply a quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This is especially important after cleaning.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains. Reapply as needed, especially before wearing in wet conditions.
  • Storage: Store the loafers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
