FAQs

What makes the 860v2 sole special?

The 860v2 sole is designed to provide enhanced cushioning and support, absorbing shock during movement and offering a comfortable experience for extended wear.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they offer comfort and cushioning, the 1906L Loafer is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual shoe. They are not intended for rigorous athletic activities like running.

How should I clean the blacktop/phantom color?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper primarily features breathable mesh, combined with other premium materials for structure and style.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

These shoes are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended and may affect the materials.

What occasions are these loafers best suited for?

They are ideal for casual wear, daily commutes, office environments (casual Fridays), and social gatherings where a stylish yet comfortable shoe is desired.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels too tight or loose

Ensure you are trying the shoes on with appropriate socks. If the issue persists, consider checking available sizes or consulting a size chart.

Discomfort after initial wear

New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the laces (if applicable) are not tied too tightly.

Mesh appears to be snagged or dirty

Carefully use a soft brush or a damp cloth to clean the mesh. For snags, gently try to smooth the fibers; avoid pulling.
