Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our handcrafted footwear.
How do I determine my correct size in Meermin shoes?
Most of our shoes are built on UK lasts. We generally recommend sizing down one full size from your standard US size. Please refer to our detailed sizing guide for specific last measurements.
What is the typical break-in period for Goodyear Welted shoes?
Due to the high-quality vegetable-tanned insoles and thick leather uppers, a break-in period of 5 to 10 wears is common before the shoes fully conform to your feet.
Do you offer international shipping?
Yes, we ship worldwide. Shipping costs and delivery times vary by destination and are calculated at checkout. Please note that international orders may be subject to local customs duties.
What is your return policy?
We accept returns of unworn, unaltered items in their original packaging within 30 days of delivery. Please ensure you try your shoes on a carpeted surface to avoid scratching the leather soles.
Can Meermin shoes be resoled?
Absolutely. Because our footwear is constructed using a traditional Goodyear Welt, the soles can be replaced multiple times by a professional cobbler, extending the life of your shoes for years.
How should I care for my leather shoes?
We recommend using cedar shoe trees after every wear to maintain shape and absorb moisture. Regularly clean with a damp cloth and apply a high-quality cream or wax polish to keep the leather hydrated.
