what is sustainably sourced leather?
Leather requires a lot of chemicals to produce. Chrome-free and vegetable-tanned leathers are the most sustainable alternative.
Good quality leather has increased breathability compared to synthetic alternatives, which maximizes comfort. Plus, they develop a rich character and patina over time.
A new pair may feel slightly snug at firsT.
This is especially true for styles like the Demi Ballet and Woven slide that require a glove-like fit. The leather lining will soften beautiful in the first few wears. For leather (not suede) styles, you can quicken the break-in period by gently spritzing with distilled water then taking a walk around your home. It may take a few spritz sessions and short walks before the leather softens completely and molds to your foot. We promise, this custom fit is worth the wait!
For suede styles, we recommend our Suede Cleaning Kit for any stubborn stains. When using leather care product, note that color will darken as the patina develops - so make sure to always treat the entire pair of shoes for even coverage.
