FAQs

What type of leather are these sandals made from?

They are made from Atlas leather, which is a waxed aniline hide known for its rich sheen and subtle pull-up effect.

How do I adjust the fit of the sandals?

The sandals feature two adjustable straps secured with gold DM's buckles, allowing you to customize the fit.

Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?

The adjustable straps offer some flexibility, but they are primarily designed for standard width feet. Trying them on is recommended if you have wider feet.

How should I care for the suede footbed?

Gently brush the suede footbed with a suede brush to remove dust and maintain its texture. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet.

Can I wear these sandals in wet weather?

While the leather is treated, it is not waterproof. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally.

What is the return policy if they don't fit?

Please refer to the retailer's specific return policy for details on exchanges and returns based on fit.

Are these sandals heavy?

The 'Shore' sole provides durability and stability, contributing to a moderate weight typical for robust leather footwear.

Troubleshooting

Straps feel too tight or loose

Adjust the straps using the gold DM's buckles to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure buckles are properly fastened.

Leather feels stiff during initial wear

Wear the sandals around the house for short periods to allow the leather to naturally mold to your foot shape. Consider using a leather conditioner after the initial break-in period.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

The Shore sole offers grip, but caution is advised on very smooth or wet surfaces. Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris.

Color transfer from leather to socks/feet

This can occur with new leather products, especially in humid conditions. Wear darker socks initially or allow the leather to cure further. A leather protector spray might help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These sandals require no assembly. They are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the straps are adjusted for a comfortable fit before your first wear.

Compatibility:

Designed for adult wear, these sandals are suitable for individuals with standard foot widths. The adjustable straps offer some flexibility for different foot shapes. They are best suited for warm weather conditions and casual environments.

Care:

To maintain the appearance and longevity of the Atlas leather:

  1. Wipe Clean: Regularly wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt.
  2. Conditioning: Periodically use a leather conditioner specifically designed for waxed or aniline leathers to keep the material supple and prevent drying.
  3. Drying: If the sandals become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  4. Buckle Care: Clean the gold buckles with a dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could tarnish the finish.
