FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The lace-up design allows for a degree of width adjustability, but users with wider feet may find the standard fit firm initially as the leather breaks in.
How do I determine my correct size?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing; it is recommended to measure your feet in the afternoon when they are at their largest.
Can I wear these in rainy weather?
While the TPR sole offers good grip, the leather upper should be treated with a water-repellent spray if you intend to wear them in wet conditions.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is approximately 2.5 cm, providing a comfortable, classic stance.
How long will it take to break them in?
Most users find that the leather becomes supple and comfortable within the first few days of regular wear.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull or loses its luster
Apply a high-quality leather polish or cream that matches the shoe color and buff gently with a soft cloth.
Footbed feels less supportive after long-term use
If the original EVA footbed wears out, it can often be replaced with a thin, supportive aftermarket insole designed for dress shoes.
Excessive squeaking while walking
This is often caused by moisture under the insole; remove the insole and allow the shoe interior to dry completely in a well-ventilated area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are lace-up leather shoes, ensure you loosen the laces fully when putting them on or taking them off to preserve the heel counter structure. For compatibility, their classic brown or black leather finish pairs well with tailored trousers, chinos, or formal suits. To care for your shoes, wipe them down with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove dust. If the leather becomes scuffed or dry, apply a high-quality leather conditioner or matching polish to maintain the finish and prevent cracking. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to become brittle.
