FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
No, the Flabelus Mary Jane style tends to run small, so we recommend sizing up.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Velvet is a delicate fabric that can be damaged by water, and the shoes are not waterproof.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is uniquely constructed from recycled bicycle tyres, providing a rustic and durable finish.
Is the lining breathable?
Yes, the interior is lined with organic cotton, which helps provide comfort and breathability.
How do I secure the shoe?
These shoes feature a traditional buckle closure, allowing you to adjust the fit around your ankle.
Can the velvet be dry cleaned?
We recommend professional advice if deep cleaning is required, but standard maintenance should be done with a soft brush.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight across the instep.
Adjust the buckle closure to its loosest setting; if discomfort persists, a professional cobbler can sometimes stretch the velvet material.
Velvet appears matted or dusty.
Use a specialized velvet brush or a very soft clothing brush to gently restore the nap of the fabric.
Sole provides less grip than expected.
Ensure the tread is free of debris or grit, as the unique rubber compound performs best when clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Flabelus Mary Janes maintain their appearance, follow these care guidelines:
- Sizing: As these shoes run small, we strongly recommend sizing up at least half a size from your standard UK measurement.
- Cleaning: Gently brush the velvet with a soft-bristled brush in the direction of the nap to remove dust. Avoid using water directly on the velvet.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the velvet color from fading.
- Sole Maintenance: Periodically inspect the tread of the recycled tyre sole and wipe away debris with a damp cloth to maintain traction.
