FAQs

Are these loafers true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK sizing. If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing down as the leather will stretch slightly over time.

Can I wear these in the rain?

While the shoes are durable, they are made of leather and should not be submerged. Use a water-repellent spray to provide extra protection against light rain.

How long does the break-in process take?

Break-in time varies by individual, but typically takes about 1-2 weeks of regular wear for the leather and sole to fully soften.

Are the tassels removable?

The tassels and kiltie fringe are integrated into the design of the Adrian series and are not intended to be removed.

Can these shoes be resoled?

Yes, because they are built with a Goodyear welt, they can be resoled by a professional cobbler once the original tread wears down.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight during the first few wears

This is normal for genuine leather. Use a leather stretcher spray or wear thicker socks for short periods to gently stretch the material.

Leather looks dull after heavy use

Clean the surface thoroughly, then apply a quality leather polish or conditioner to restore the shine and nourish the hide.

Squeaking sound while walking

This often occurs at the point where the leather flexes or the sole hits the floor. Applying a small amount of talcum powder under the removable insole can often reduce friction-based noise.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Adrian loafers remain in top condition, follow these care steps:

  1. Break-in: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dust and debris. Apply a leather cleaner specifically formulated for high-quality footwear.
  3. Conditioning: Use a leather conditioner periodically to prevent the material from cracking or drying out.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources. Use shoe trees to maintain the shape of the loafer when not in use.
  5. Compatibility: These shoes pair well with tailored trousers, chinos, or dark-wash denim, making them a versatile staple for most adult wardrobes.
