Chunky Leather FAQ

Q: Is the heel tab lettering printed or heat-stamped?

A: This high-grade batch uses a deep heat-press foil stamping technique that bonds the silver metallic ink deep into the suede, preventing early rubbing or peeling.

Q: Will the leather crease heavily on the first wear?

A: While all natural leather creases, this premium calfskin batch is selected for its high elastic recovery, creasing naturally and softly without unsightly cracking, scoring 94.1% on our quality tests.

Q: How do I ship these to prevent denting the heavy platform sole?

A: Since these are heavy (around 1200g with box), we recommend keeping the original box and asking your agent to use corner guards to keep the presentation pristine during transit.

Q: Are the ventilation holes on the side straight?

A: Yes, they are machine-punched in a perfect straight horizontal line with clean edges, avoiding the rough, crooked holes seen on low-tier inspired designs.
