Is your leather vegan?
No. We do not offer vegan leather products. Our leather is eco-certified and vegetal tanned. Through laboratory test, it shows that the toxic and chrome (an toxic element in the leather tanning process) level of our leather is 0, which means that our leather products are totally free of chrome and toxic. The leather we use is also by-product of food industry in Colombia, which means no animals were harmed in order to produce leather for our use.

Sizing
My feet fall between 2 sizes, which should I choose?
If you are struggling between 2 sizes, we recommend you measure your feet, following the video in the size guide, and find the correct fit based on the sizing chart. If you are still not sure, we are here to help! Call us at (UAE) 02 6397972, or email us at info@handmade.com, and we will get back to you within 48 hours to help you choose a perfect fit.
My feet are a bit wide. Will the shoes fit?
Most definitely! Let us know in the note box during checkout that your feet are slightly wide, or send us your feet measurements. We will work the leather of the shoes to make them fit your feet in width. As an example, here's a review from our previous customer: ''These Colorines are AMAZING quality, and they're super comfortable! I have very wide feet, and they even offered to stretch out my shoes for me--and when I received them, they were perfect! ...No complaints whatsoever, incredible service, would come back for more!'' -- Customer from Singapore.
I received my shoes. They're a bit snug. Will my shoes stretch?
Yes, keep in mind that it's good for leather shoes to be a little snug in the width as they do stretch and start molding to your feet within the first 3-5 wears. We recommend wearing socks while breaking in shoes and wearing them indoors on carpet in order to increase comfort and still allow for an exchange if necessary.
