Got questions about your holsters? We've got you covered!

This is entirely dependent on climate. If you are lucky enough to live somewhere hot and humid, there is a chance your feet may feel damp when you walk from an air-conditioned environment to go outside. This is similar to sunglasses fogging when entering humid surrounds, but it quickly passes. We have not received any feedback about smelly feet!

We receive a large amount of feedback from global customers regarding the amazing comfort they feel wearing their holster jelly shoes.

A common design feature of our flat shoes is the slight arch, horseshoe sole and underheel air pocket. This is far more supportive than a completely flat design (for example, a thong). For those who prefer a non-arched sole, we offer/recommend padded insoles to ensure you’re still as comfortable as possible.

Like all shoes, your holsters will last longer the more love you show them. If you undo the buckle and strap every time you put them on or take them off, they will not stretch. If you pull the ankle strap over your heel every time you put them on or take them off, then yes, you will eventually stretch them.

The digital images we display have the most accurate colour possible. However, due to differences in computer monitors and settings, we cannot be responsible for variations in colour between your screen and the actual product.

That is our unique holster fragrance! Many of our customers tell us how much they love it. This particular aroma will only last a few weeks, much like the smell of new leather shoes. Rest assured, all our products are safe, REACH compliant and contain no ‘Substances of Very High Concern’ (SVHC).

The embellishments on your shoes will dazzle longer the more love they are given. If your shoes get wet in the rain or from regular cleaning, then ensure they are completely (and delicately) dried. This is particularly applicable for saltwater, as it can be quite corrosive.

Avoid excessive rubbing or abrasive activity, such as scratching embellishments on car doors, rough surfaces and the like. Some skin products, such as suntan lotion, can cause erosion of the silver trays. With proper care, the silver will not come off. It might sound like we’re harping on about shoe care, but your holsters will truly fare better the more love you show them.

holster is known for its gorgeous embellishments. However, from time to time, accessories can become loose. Replacement accessories such as jewels, studs and buckles for current season styles may be available. Please click here to send us an email with a picture of the shoes. We charge $10 for buckle or embellishment replacements to be sent out to you.

This one really depends on the issue. We will ask for pictures of the top, sole and problem area of the shoes first to ensure we can assist you. We charge $10 per repair and ask that you cover the cost of return freight. We also reserve the right to decline items for repair if they are deemed unrepairable.

Don’t worry it’s not a defect, just a very normal part of the manufacturing process where the solid colour mixes with the pearlescent colour. You will find this on all of our metallic coloured shoes (Bronze, Pewter, Silver etc.).

We absolutely love to hear from our customers with feedback on our products, even constructive criticism. The invaluable feedback provided to us is taken seriously as it helps to improve and grow our brand. If you would like to take the time to provide us with your feedback, please fill out the form here.
