Product Information
Full details
The Faith: Hope sandals by Dorothy Perkins are designed for adults seeking a dramatic yet wearable evening footwear option. Featuring a striking block heel and platform base, these suede shoes offer significant height while maintaining a stable stride, making them an ideal choice for cocktail events or elevated casual outings; however, users should note that the high-platform design requires a period of adjustment for those not accustomed to significant heel height.

FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for all-day wear?
While the block heel provides stability, they are primarily designed as evening wear and may cause fatigue if worn for an entire day.
How do I clean my black suede heels?
Use a specialized suede brush or a dry cloth to gently rub off marks. Avoid using water or generic household cleaners.
Do these shoes fit true to size?
Yes, they are designed to standard UK sizing. We recommend ordering your usual size.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended, as moisture can permanently damage or stain the suede material.
What is the primary material of these sandals?
The exterior is made from high-quality suede, providing a soft-touch finish.
Is the heel height manageable for beginners?
The platform base helps manage the height, but beginners may want to practice walking in them indoors before wearing them for a long event.
Troubleshooting
Ankle strap feels too loose or too tight
Adjust the buckle to the next hole; if no holes remain, a professional cobbler can add an extra notch to the strap.
Suede looks dull or flat
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the nap of the fabric, which will restore the soft, rich texture.
General discomfort after short wear
Ensure the shoe is properly buckled and consider using a gel insole pad to improve cushioning during the break-in phase.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Faith: Hope sandals, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the suede from fading. Use a soft-bristled brush regularly to remove dust and dirt from the suede surface. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from heat sources. Compatibility-wise, these shoes fit standard UK sizing; ensure you select your correct UK size 7 for the best fit. Avoid wearing these in heavy rain, as water can cause permanent staining or texture degradation on suede materials.
