FAQs

Is the insole removable?

The insole is designed for optimal comfort as part of the shoe construction; check the specific interior lining to see if it allows for custom orthotic replacement.

How do I ensure I have the right size?

This model is listed as UK size 11.5. Always measure your feet in the evening when they are at their largest to ensure a comfortable fit.

Are these shoes waterproof?

While leather provides some natural resistance, these are not waterproof shoes. Avoid heavy rain to preserve the finish.

Can I use these for formal occasions?

Yes, the refined leather finish and low-profile design make them appropriate for most smart-casual or business-casual environments.

How often should I condition the leather?

Depending on frequency of wear, conditioning every 2 to 3 months is recommended to keep the leather hydrated and looking new.

Do I need to re-lace the shoes every time?

No, once the laces are set to your preferred comfort, you can use the side zip for easy daily access.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty moving the side zipper

Ensure no fabric or laces are caught in the track and apply a light touch of zipper lubricant if necessary.

Leather feels stiff after storage

Apply a leather cream or conditioner to restore suppleness and break the material in again through light wear.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy on/off functionality thanks to the side zipper
  • High level of underfoot cushioning for all-day comfort
  • Versatile design suitable for both casual and formal settings
  • Breathable materials promote a healthy foot climate

Cons

  • Leather requires regular care to prevent cracking
  • Size availability varies across different color variants
  • Not intended for heavy-duty outdoor or athletic performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are lace-up shoes, ensure that the laces are adjusted to your specific foot volume before first use. Once set, you can rely primarily on the side zipper for daily donning. For long-term care:

  1. Clean the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth after wear to remove dust and debris.
  2. Apply a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent drying.
  3. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to preserve the adhesive bonds and leather integrity.
  4. If the shoes become wet, stuff them with newspaper or a shoe tree to help maintain their shape while drying.
