Upperline
The Upperline was our first boot interpretation of the traditional yemeni. Made in navy leather with orange piping and a hand-stitched heel X, it pairs structure with ease.
Lined in natural wool, it is the warmest of the collection and designed for the colder seasons.
Sizing
If you have never tried on Rafiks before and you're unsure about which size Rafik is right for you, please consult the sizing guide included in this Rafik's image gallery.
We gave Rafiks a narrow toebox (front of the shoe). This was done because the leathers we use stretch over time. It is normal, even preferable, for your Rafiks to feel somewhat tight when you first wear them. Rafik Boots are a little roomier inside than our classic Rafiks so that they may better accommodate thick socks.
If you're unsure about what size you should purchase, please include your foot measurement, as well as the size loafer or slip-on you usually wear in the "Add note to seller" section at checkout.

Exchanges/Returns
In Europe we process exchanges and returns through Paris and Istanbul. In the United States we process them through San Francisco. Returns are only accepted if the shoes have not been worn. The customer is responsible for the cost of shipping in both cases.
