How does Eric Michael sizing run?

Eric Michael uses European sizes, roughly 35 to 42. Most shoppers take their usual EU size, but those between sizes often go up, since the strap adjusts width rather than length.

Is the Juniper good for wide feet?

The hook-and-loop strap across the instep opens wide and adjusts the fit, which helps many wide-footed wearers. It is not a dedicated wide width, so very wide feet may still feel pressure.

Can I wear it for long walks?

It works for city days and errands, but the sole is thin and flat. It is a comfort sandal, not a hiking or athletic walking shoe.

What is the upper made of?

The upper and lining are leather, made in Portugal. The leather softens and molds to the foot with wear.

How do I care for the leather?

Wipe with a damp cloth and let it air dry away from direct heat. A neutral leather conditioner keeps the upper supple without darkening the blue or beige finish.
