FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for school uniforms?
Yes, the classic black Mary Jane silhouette is a popular choice for many school uniform requirements.
How do I ensure the correct size?
Refer to the UK sizing provided; it is recommended to measure the foot at the end of the day when feet are at their largest.
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the leather is durable and water-resistant, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water.
Do the buckles actually function?
No, the buckles are decorative; the shoes utilize a practical hook-and-loop closure system hidden underneath.
How long does it take to break them in?
Break-in time varies per individual, but typically takes about one to two weeks of consistent, moderate wear.
Troubleshooting
Straps are not holding securely
Check the hook-and-loop fasteners for lint or debris build-up and clean them to restore grip.
Leather feels too stiff
Wear the shoes for short periods around the house with thick socks to gently stretch and soften the leather.
Surface scuffing
Use a matching black shoe polish or leather balm to buff out light surface scuffs and restore the shine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shoes are designed for a straightforward, intuitive setup; simply adjust the straps to fit the foot snugly. Because they are constructed from genuine leather, it is important to keep them clean to maintain their longevity. Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources. To maintain the leather's suppleness and protect the finish, consider using a standard leather conditioner periodically. Avoid machine washing or submersing the shoes in water.
