FAQs

What material are these platform heels made of?

These platform heels are crafted from a soft faux suede material, offering a luxurious look and feel.

What is the heel height and platform height?

The heels feature a 2cm platform height and a 9cm overall heel height, providing a significant and elegant lift.

Are these heels suitable for all-day wear?

While the platform helps with comfort, the 9cm heel height means these shoes are generally best suited for special occasions, events, or evenings out, rather than prolonged all-day wear.

How should I clean the faux suede material?

For basic cleaning, gently brush off dust and dirt with a soft-bristled brush. For tougher stains, use a specialized faux suede cleaner, following the product's instructions. Avoid excessive moisture.

Do these heels come in other sizes?

Yes, these platform heels are available in various UK adult foot sizes to accommodate different needs.

How do I ensure a secure fit with the ankle strap?

The ankle strap is adjustable via a buckle. Fasten it so it feels secure around your ankle, preventing your foot from slipping, but not so tight that it restricts circulation or causes discomfort. Adjust as needed.

Troubleshooting

Ankle strap feels uncomfortable or loose.

Adjust the buckle on the wrap-around ankle strap. Ensure it is snug enough to provide support but loose enough to allow for comfortable ankle movement. Experiment with different buckle holes to find your ideal fit.

Heels feel unstable or difficult to walk in.

Ensure the ankle strap is securely fastened. For new heels, dedicate some time to practice walking indoors to build confidence and allow the shoes to conform slightly to your feet. Take shorter, deliberate steps.

Faux suede material appears dull or has minor scuffs.

Gently brush the faux suede with a soft brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For scuffs, try gently rubbing the area with a pencil eraser or a specialized suede eraser, then brush clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Unpack Carefully: Remove the heels from their packaging, checking for any protective inserts.
  2. Adjust Ankle Strap: Before your first wear, slide your foot into the shoe and fasten the wrap-around ankle strap. Adjust the buckle until the strap feels secure around your ankle, providing support without being too tight or restrictive. Ensure you can comfortably move your ankle.
  3. Initial Wear: Take a few steps to get accustomed to the heel height and ensure the fit is comfortable. If new to heels of this height, practice walking indoors first.

Compatibility

These black suede platform heels are incredibly versatile and pair well with a multitude of outfits:

  • Dresses: Ideal with cocktail dresses, evening gowns, and even stylish midi or maxi dresses.
  • Skirts: Pair with pencil skirts, A-line skirts, or pleated skirts for a refined look.
  • Trousers: Wear with tailored trousers, wide-leg pants, or even dressy cropped pants for a sophisticated ensemble.
  • Occasions: Perfect for formal dinners, parties, weddings, galas, and professional events requiring an elevated dress code.

Care

To maintain the beauty and longevity of your faux suede platform heels, follow these care instructions:

  • Cleaning: Gently brush off any dust or dry dirt using a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for suede or a clean, dry cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized faux suede cleaner, following the product's instructions carefully.
  • Moisture Protection: Avoid prolonged exposure to water or heavy rain, as moisture can damage faux suede. If they do get wet, blot them gently with a clean cloth and allow them to air dry away from direct heat.
  • Stain Removal: For liquid spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub, as this can spread the stain. Apply a faux suede cleaner if necessary.
  • Storage: Store your heels in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a dust bag or the original shoebox will protect the suede from dust and scuffs and help maintain their shape.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, detergents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the faux suede material.
