Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our handcrafted footwear.
How do I determine my size in Meermin shoes?
Our shoes are primarily listed in UK sizing. We recommend referencing our comprehensive size guide or contacting our support team to compare against US or EU sizes, as fit varies depending on the specific last used for each model.
What is the difference between Goodyear Welted and Handwelted construction?
Goodyear Welted shoes are machine-stitched for durability and easy resoling, while our Linea Maestro handwelted shoes are stitched by hand to a leather insole, offering superior flexibility and a more traditional artisanal finish.
How long does shipping take for Made-to-Order (MTO) items?
MTO items are crafted specifically for you. Production typically takes 8 to 10 weeks before shipping. For ready-to-wear items, orders are usually processed and shipped within 2-4 business days.
What is your return policy for international orders?
We accept returns on unworn, pristine items within 15 days of delivery. Please note that customers are responsible for return shipping costs and any applicable duties. Group Guide (MTO) items are final sale.
Do you offer a resoling service?
While we do not currently offer an in-house resoling service, all our Goodyear Welted and Handwelted shoes are designed to be easily resoled by any competent local cobbler, extending the life of your footwear for years.
Which leathers do you use for your footwear?
We source premium leathers from world-renowned tanneries, including Boxcalf from Tanneries d'Annonay in France, Shell Cordovan from Shinki Hikaku in Japan, and various suedes from Charles F. Stead in the UK.
