What is a Goodyear welted sole?

This process is the traditional method for the manufacturing of men's dress shoes and it takes its name from the inventor who came up with the original hand sewn method. The benefit of a dress shoe which is made using the Goodyear welt construction is that the system allows for constant flow of air through the shoe, which keeps the shoes ventilated, durable and strong. These types of soles can also be replaced.

How do I care for my Christinashiefer shoes?

If this product gets dirty, clean it off with a damp cloth and leave it to dry away from strong heat sources and direct sunlight. Polish with a soft cloth, using a natural leather cream containing no solvents. Suede leathers should be brushed with a soft bristled brush without using creams.  Leatherhoney is a product we like and use on our own shoes!

How do I find my shoe size?

Generally, women’s styles range from sizes 6 – 11 and men's from 8 – 13. If a particular shoe fit varies from normal, we will advise you accordingly in the product description. We aim to provide advice as best we can regarding sizing, but unfortunately, we cannot guarantee sizing for individual customers.

How do I determine my belt size?

Belts are sized in inches and should be ordered 2 inches larger than your pants size. To find out what size you wear, first decide whether you will be wearing the belt around your waist or lower on your hips. For waist belts, take a measurement around your natural waistline (at the belly button). This is normally the smallest part of your torso. For hip belts, take a measurement around the fuller part of your hips where your jeans will normally fall.  TIP: Use a belt that you already own and that fits you well to find your belt size! Lay out the belt and measure from one end (not including the buckle) to the hole that you most frequently use.

Would the shoes I order look same as on the photo?

The distinctive finishing on the leathers of Christinashiefer product is created in our workshops one piece at a time. This unique hand finishing process results in no two products ever looking the same. The differences in tone and texture are a statement to their authenticity which we proudly stand behind.  Note the LUX finishes will change, as these are made to change and distress with each wear.

Can I use a coupon on my purchase?

Coupon codes cannot be applied to any sale item or combined with any other promotions or offers. Online promotional codes can only be used once and cannot be applied after the order has been placed. All promotional codes are case specific.
