FAQs
Are these suitable for outdoor wear?
Yes, the DANYA slippers and sandals can be worn outdoors for casual purposes, but they are best suited for dry conditions and smooth surfaces to ensure longevity of the leather.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the size guide provided by Vagabond Shoemakers. The product information lists the UK size (e.g., UK 5.5), so ensure you match your foot measurement to the corresponding size.
Can I wear these with socks?
While designed to be worn barefoot for comfort and style, you can wear thin socks if preferred, though it may alter the fit slightly.
What is the 'brush-off' leather finish?
Brush-off leather has a finish that allows the surface colour to be buffed or brushed away in certain areas, creating a nuanced, two-tone effect that adds depth and character. It can also be restored with appropriate care.
How often should I condition the leather?
It's recommended to condition the leather every 3-6 months, or more frequently if the shoes are exposed to harsh conditions or appear dry.
Do these come in other colours?
The provided information specifically details the red variant. Please check the Vagabond Shoemakers official website or authorized retailers for availability in other colours.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a suitable leather conditioner following the product's instructions. Allow it to absorb before wearing.
Scuffs or marks on the leather
For minor scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, consult a leather care specialist or use a leather repair product designed for coloured leather.
Slippers feel slightly tight
Leather will naturally stretch slightly with wear. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet.
Color transfer to socks or feet
This can occasionally happen with dark-dyed leather. Ensure the leather is properly sealed and consider using a protective spray. It may lessen with wear.

Care Instructions:
