FAQs

What type of leather are these mules made from?

The Saint Laurent Franciane Mules are crafted from smooth leather.

Are these mules suitable for wide feet?

The mule design offers a certain width flexibility across the foot, but the crisscross strap may offer a more fitted feel. It is recommended to try them on if possible for the best assessment of fit.

How should I store my mules when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. It is advisable to keep them in their original box or a dust bag to protect the leather.

Can I wear these mules in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear smooth leather shoes in wet conditions, as water can stain and damage the leather. These mules are best suited for dry weather.

What is the heel height of the Franciane Mules?

The product description specifies a block heel, but the exact height is not provided. However, block heels are generally designed for stability and moderate elevation.

How do I clean the twisted strap detail?

The twisted strap is part of the smooth leather upper. Clean it using the same method as the rest of the shoe: wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

Troubleshooting

Leather shows minor scuffs

Gently buff the area with a soft, dry cloth. For more persistent marks, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly and follow with a leather conditioner.

Slightly tight fit

Smooth leather will mold to your foot over time. Wear them around the house for short periods to help break them in. Avoid stretching them forcefully.

Discoloration from water exposure

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a leather conditioner to restore suppleness. Prevention is key; avoid wearing in wet conditions.
