Product Insights
Despite the 'platform height' label, this is an ankle bootie, not a mid-calf boot; the 25.5 cm figure is total floor-to-top height. The 6.5 cm block heel sits on a 1.5" platform, leaving only about an inch of effective rise, which walks stably but feels heavier and stiffer than a slim-heeled bootie. Runs true to size; order your usual size, but take the half size up if you are between sizes or plan thick socks. Full-length elastic side panels and a back pull loop let the shaft open substantially for entry, but there are no laces or buckles to loosen the fit once the boot is on. The suede upper has a waterproof treatment, but routine care still means wiping with a soft dry cloth, brushing dry dirt in one direction, and reapplying a suede protector spray each season. The notched embossed rubber sole is a city/street tread for wet pavement, slush and light snow, not a deep winter lug for packed ice or unshovelled snow.
Verified claims
- silhouette
- Despite the 'platform height' label, this is an ankle bootie, not a mid-calf boot; the 25.5 cm figure is total floor-to-top height.
- heel and platform
- The 6.5 cm block heel sits on a 1.5" platform, leaving only about an inch of effective rise, which walks stably but feels heavier and stiffer than a slim-heeled bootie.
- fit
- Runs true to size; order your usual size, but take the half size up if you are between sizes or plan thick socks.
- sizing
- The run covers 6 through 10, but half sizes exist only at 7.5 and 8.5, so a true 6.5 or 9.5 foot must choose a neighbouring whole size.
- measurement basis
- The 29 cm opening circumference, 6.5 cm heel and 25.5 cm overall height were measured on a size 9, so those figures describe size 9 literally and only approximately elsewhere.
- entry and closure
- Full-length elastic side panels and a back pull loop let the shaft open substantially for entry, but there are no laces or buckles to loosen the fit once the boot is on.
- shaft width
- The opening is close-fitting, so wider ankles or high insteps can get the boot on via the elastic but should not expect a roomy shaft.
- elastic durability
- Elastic gore panels gradually relax with wear, so entry gets easier while the ankle hold softens; when trying on, the panel should give easily, spring back, and have neat dense stitching.
- suede fit
- The suede upper molds to the foot with wear, reducing pressure points, so aim for a fit that is snug at the ankle and comfortable across the instep from the start.
- fit check
- Try the boot on with the socks you plan to wear and walk around: the panel should hold the ankle without digging in, and heel lift means the fit is too loose.
- care
- The suede upper has a waterproof treatment, but routine care still means wiping with a soft dry cloth, brushing dry dirt in one direction, and reapplying a suede protector spray each season.
- salt stains
- Salt is the real vulnerability for this suede: let the boot dry, brush off residue, wipe with a lightly damp cloth, then re-brush and re-spray; fresh salt lifts far more easily than stains left for weeks.
- suede durability
- Suede nap hairs can turn stiff and brittle when wet or dried after wetting, and broken hairs are permanent, so wet boots should air-dry 8–24 hours at room temperature away from radiators, hairdryers and sunlight.
- protector application
- Test any protector on a hidden area first because sprays can darken or flatten suede; choose a water-based nubuck/suede formula rather than wax or silicone, which can mat the nap and trap moisture.
- re-proofing
- When re-proofing, clean first, apply the water-based proofer, then air-dry for about 24 hours; skipping the cleaning step leaves a water-attractive film that stops the proofer from bonding.
- traction
- The notched embossed rubber sole is a city/street tread for wet pavement, slush and light snow, not a deep winter lug for packed ice or unshovelled snow.
- construction
- Construction combines a suede upper, ribbed elastic side gores, contrast topstitching, a rear pull tab, a faux-leather padded footbed, and an embossed rubber notched-lug sole with a chunky block heel.
- lining and footbed
- The lining and sock combine water-based PU leather, textile and leather, and the footbed is faux-leather padded.
- colourway
- The Hazelnut colourway pairs a warm suede upper with a darker brown elastic panel and dark chocolate sole and heel, with light contrast stitching outlining the panels.
- styling and uses
- Its Chelsea-style ankle silhouette, rounded square toe and chunky lug sole read as casual weather-ready city styling, easy with jeans, trousers or dresses, rather than a dressy slim bootie.
- value
- At 230 CAD across all seven Hazelnut sizes, with no colour premium or discounted variant, value hinges on fit and whether the waterproof suede, block heel and lug sole match how you will wear them.
