FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

They feature a Scotchgard treatment for enhanced water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged.

Where are these shoes manufactured?

The Delapre line is proudly crafted in England by the renowned C. F. Stead tannery.

How should I clean the suede?

Use a suede-specific brush to remove dirt and only use cleaners specifically designed for suede materials.

Do I need to break them in?

As with most high-quality leather footwear, a brief break-in period is normal to ensure the best fit.

Are the soles slip-resistant?

The classic DMS sole is designed for comfort and durability, providing good traction for standard urban surfaces.

Can I use standard leather polish on these?

No, do not use standard leather polish on suede as it will damage the texture; use only suede-approved care products.

Troubleshooting

Visible dust or dry dirt on suede surface

Use a specialized suede brush or a soft-bristled brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface debris.

Stiffness during initial wear

Wear the shoes with thick socks for short periods at home to gradually stretch and soften the leather.

Water spots on the suede

Lightly dampen the entire surface with a suede-appropriate cleaner and allow it to dry evenly in a ventilated area.

Pros and Cons

  • High-quality English craftsmanship
  • Water and stain-resistant suede finish
  • Iconic air-cushioned comfort
  • Versatile classic penny loafer style

Cons

  • Suede material requires regular specialized cleaning

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When you first receive your shoes, it is recommended to wear them for short durations to allow the material to conform to your feet. Compatibility is high with smart-casual outfits, pairing well with chinos or dress trousers. For care, avoid submerging them in water. Use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust regularly. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from stiffening.
