Suzanne's Note:

The V-cut-out on this boot shows just the right amount of skin. Tip: Wear ballerina no-show socks or pair them with fun decorative tall socks for a fun pop!

Command attention in the WORK NERD bootie by Diba True. Crafted from hand-distressed vintage leather, each pair boasts one-of-a-kind character and timeless charm. The unique ankle cutout, 2-inch heel, and round toe strike the perfect balance between edgy and effortless. Designed as a pull-on style for easy wear, this bootie brings standout appeal to everything from jeans to dresses.

Pair with a plaid midi skirt and a leather moto jacket for a balanced, edgy look. They also look great with cuffed boyfriend jeans and a light blouse for a weekend-ready ensemble.

OUR FIT TIP:

90% of our customers say this fits true to size.

CARE GUIDE

Proper care can significantly extend the life and appearance of these shoes. Here's a care guide for each material type:

Care Guide for Genuine Leather Shoes:

  1. Cleaning:

- Wipe off dirt and dust using a soft, damp cloth.

- For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for the type of leather used in your shoes.

  1. Conditioning:

- Apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather soft, supple, and moisturized. This prevents cracking and maintains the natural sheen.

- Use a product recommended for your specific leather type and follow the manufacturer's instructions.

  1. Polishing:

- Polish your leather shoes occasionally to restore their shine and color.

- Choose a polish that matches the color of your shoes and buff gently with a soft cloth.

  1. Protection:

- Apply a water and stain repellent spray to protect against spills and moisture. Reapply as needed.

  1. Storage:

- Store leather shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.

- Use shoe trees, forms, or provided stuffing to help maintain their shape.

Care Guide for Genuine Suede Shoes:

  1. Brushing:

- Use a suede brush or a soft, dry toothbrush to gently brush off dirt and restore the nap (the raised surface of the suede).

  1. Stain Removal:

- For wet stains, blot gently with a clean, dry cloth and let the shoes air dry. Avoid using heat sources like hair dryers.

- For dry stains, try a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. Test on a small, inconspicuous area first.

  1. Protection:

- Apply a suede protector spray to guard against water and stains. Allow the shoes to dry completely after spraying.

  1. Storage:

- Store suede shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid crushing them, as suede is more delicate than leather.

- Use shoe trees, forms, or provided stuffing to maintain their shape.

Care Guide for Multimedia Shoes or other materials:

  1. Cleaning:

- Wipe away dirt and dust using a soft, damp cloth. If the shoes have different materials, ensure the cloth is appropriate for all surfaces.

  1. Material-Specific Care:

- Follow the care instructions for each material used in the shoes. For example, if there's leather and fabric, follow the leather care instructions for the leather parts and fabric care instructions for the fabric parts.

  1. Protection:

- Apply appropriate protectants or sprays to the different materials. Be sure to use products that won't damage any specific material.

  1. Storage:

- Store multimedia shoes as you would for the most delicate material used in the shoes. Separate them from other shoes to prevent potential scratching or damage.

Remember that regular maintenance and proper care will help keep your shoes looking their best for a long time.

Own several pairs of Diba True sandals and booties. They are of superior quality. I’ve owned 2 pair of booties for 8 - 10 years and they look new. Recent mix-up on order (my fault on original order). Then email was misinterpreted. Diba True used rare (in this day) excellent personable customer service to get everything straight. Thank you!
