FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, these shoes are designed to follow standard sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may consider a half-size larger for extra comfort.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While leather is durable, it is not waterproof. Avoid heavy rain and consider applying a leather protectant spray to repel minor moisture.
Do I need to wear socks with these?
These can be worn with or without socks. If worn without, ensure the shoes are dry and clean to maintain hygiene.
How do I store the shoes to keep their shape?
Using cedar shoe trees is recommended to help the leather retain its shape and absorb excess moisture after wear.
Is the material synthetic or genuine leather?
These shoes are crafted from genuine leather, which offers superior breathability and longevity compared to synthetic alternatives.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during the first few wears
Leather will stretch and mold to your foot over time; wear them for short durations with thicker socks to gently expand the fit.
Scuff marks appearing on the surface
Use a matching black leather cream or polish to buff out minor scuffs and restore the uniform finish.
Sole grip is slippery on smooth surfaces
With time, the soles will naturally roughen; if needed, a cobbler can apply a thin rubber grip pad to the underside.

Care Instructions:
- Keep the leather dry and store in a cool, ventilated area.
- Use a high-quality leather conditioner monthly to maintain material suppleness.
- Remove surface dust with a soft, dry cloth after each use.
- If the shoes get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent leather distortion.
