The Carmine Platform runs true to size, so we recommend ordering based on your usual US size.

Medium width is considered standard, so if you generally find standard widths comfortable in other shoes, we suggest taking a Medium. However, if you find that other shoes often pinch or feel too tight around the ball of your foot, the Wide is a fantastic option to try. It is made on a combination last, with the toe box being the only area that is wider (it's also a great option to try if you have bunions). The Narrow will be more narrow throughout the entirety of the shoes; it's a good option if you find your foot frequently slips or feels insecure in a standard width.

Our nappa Carmine Platforms are made from a soft, Italian nappa leather. Nappa leather is permeable, so avoid exposure to water and rain. To maintain the sheen and finish over time, you can use a quality leather lotion. Our suede Carmine Platforms are made from Italian suede, a surprisingly durable material. Marks and scuffs to the suede can be gently removed using a suede brush and cleaning spray, like those provided in our suede care kit. Regular treatment with a protectant spray can also help prevent signs of future wear.

The Carmine Platform has a comparable fit to our City Sandal and Platform Sandal, as it is made on the same last.

The plush front straps of the Carmine Platform should fit comfortably around the widest part of your foot. The straps at the heel will not be entirely flush against your foot in order to allow for comfortable movement throughout the day.
