Light in its attitude, careful in its proportions, the Claudia sneaker has become one of the House's most worn pieces. Its cow leather and suede structure softens over time, its comfort leather sole accompanies the stride naturally and its golden monogram underlines its character without overdoing it. It exists in several colors, from Sarah Blue to more neutral shades.
In the cold season, everything depends on the material and the height of the stem. Soft leather that develops a patina, a sole that holds up on wet cobblestones, a shape that leaves room for a thick sock: these details make the difference on a daily basis. A sufficiently sober pair will go well with all of your women's pants like your mesh pieces.
When trying on, one principle is better than all the size guides: we try on at the end of the day, when the foot has slightly swollen, and with the sock that we will actually wear. Quality leather stretches a little in width, never in length. A pair that is too short will stay that way.
Maintaining leather throughout the seasons
The most useful gesture is also the simplest: alternate pairs. Leather needs a day to dry between two doors, otherwise it will deform and wear out more quickly. We complete with wooden shoe trees, regular cleaning with a soft brush, and a nourishing cream a few times per season.
After rain, let it dry at room temperature, away from a radiator, by sliding paper inside. And when a sole starts to wear out, it's better to have it re-soled early: a pair resoled on time lasts twice as long.
