FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The flats are designed to standard sizing conventions; however, since they are leather, they may feel snug at first before relaxing to your foot shape.
Can I wear these for long walks?
While comfortable for office use and light city walking, the flat sole design does not provide heavy cushioning or arch support suitable for long-distance hiking or all-day trekking.
How should I clean the leather?
Use a soft, dry cloth for regular maintenance. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather conditioning balm.
Is the material real leather?
Yes, these flats are manufactured using premium leather, which provides a high-quality finish and breathability.
Can these be worn in the rain?
It is recommended to avoid heavy rain as prolonged exposure to water can damage the leather and the adhesive bonding of the sole.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during initial wear
Leather will naturally stretch and mold to your feet over the first few wears; consider wearing them for shorter intervals indoors initially.
Surface scuffs appearing on the leather
Use a matching black leather cream or polish to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore the material's original luster.
Slippery soles on smooth surfaces
Scuff the bottom of the soles lightly with sandpaper to increase traction if the shoes feel slick on polished floors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your leather shoes, keep them away from direct heat sources and excessive moisture. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use. For maintenance, gently wipe the leather surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. If the shoes become stained, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied to a cloth rather than directly on the material. Because these are classic leather flats, they pair well with both formal office wear like slacks or blazers and casual attire like slim-fit denim, making them a staple in any adult wardrobe.
