FAQs

Can these be worn in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear suede pumps in heavy rain, as water can cause staining and texture damage.

Are they true to size?

The pumps are designed for standard sizing; ensure you select your usual UK size 5 for the best fit.

What is the best way to store them?

Store them in a cool, dry area inside a breathable dust bag to keep them clean and shape-retained.

Can I use leather polish on these?

No, do not use standard leather polish on suede as it will permanently damage the nap and finish of the material.

Are the straps adjustable?

The straps utilize an adhesive fastening system, allowing for a personalized fit across the top of your foot.

Troubleshooting

The shoe feels slightly loose while walking

Adjust the adhesive strap tension to ensure it fits securely across the arch of your foot.

Light dirt spots on the suede

Use a dry suede brush or a clean eraser to gently buff away the surface stains.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ballet pumps remain in top condition, follow these care instructions:

  1. Initial Protection: Before wearing, apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray to create a protective barrier.
  2. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt or dust after each wear. For stubborn spots, use a suede eraser.
  3. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the beige colour over time. Use shoe trees to maintain the shape of the toe.
  4. Moisture: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never use a hairdryer or place them near a radiator, as direct heat can harden and ruin the suede material.
