Questions people ask before they buy
What size should I take?
Whole US sizes, 4 to 13. It runs small and the fit is narrow: take one size up from your usual US size — if you wear an 8, order a 9. Wide foot or high instep: the size up is not optional. A low-cut flat has no strap or lace to loosen, so the length has to be right: a toe against the front is the one thing you would notice. To be sure, measure your foot heel to toe and open “Runs small — what’s my size?” above the button: it lists the longest foot each size fits. The label inside reads the EU size — a US 9 is marked 39. If it still lands wrong, a person swaps it inside thirty days.
Is there a break-in period?
There should not be. The sole is soft from the first wear rather than stiff leather that has to give. If the pair you get needs breaking in, that is not what we sold you — that is what the thirty days are for.
Can I wear them in the rain?
A patent upper handles a wet pavement better than suede and wipes dry with a cloth. It is not a rain shoe, though — standing water will get in at the vamp like it does with any flat.
The limited-edition suede pair is for dry days: suede drinks water, and a wet mark stays.
Burgundy, black — or the limited edition?
Black disappears and goes with everything you own. Burgundy is the one people comment on, and it is the shade that runs through the bags and the knitwear — so it matches the rest of what we make.
Brown Suede and Leopard Suede are a limited run on the same last and the same sole — pick your size the same way, one size up. When they are gone, they are gone.
Do they work with trousers or only dresses?
Both, and the low vamp is the reason. A high-cut flat chops the foot and shortens the leg; this one shows more of the instep, so the trouser line runs straight down into the shoe.
Is it really handmade?
Yes. Each pair is made by hand, which is why stock stays low and why a size can sell out before the next pairs are finished.
Can I return or exchange them?
Yes — thirty days from the day they land on your doorstep. Anything damaged or defective is replaced or refunded in full, and we won’t ask you to ship it back.
