FIT & SIZING

How do I know which size will fit me best?

You can visit our detailed Fit Guide for in-depth information on our different lasts and silhouettes. Our size chart on each product page gives common conversions, and each product description contains helpful hints on whether it might be necessary to size up or down in a specific style. If you are feeling unsure, please call us at 805-845-4350 or email us at hello@theofficeofangelascott.com and a member of our team will help you find the perfect fit.

What is the difference between a regular width and a wide width shoe?

A regular width shoe has a foot bed designed to fit women with a narrow to standard toe bed. Wide width shoes, on the other hand, have a fuller foot bed, more suited to wider or more sensitive feet. Not sure which is best for you? Go ahead and try both - we offer free shipping and returns and want you to love your shoes. We are working with our factory in Portugal to expand our size and style offerings. Shop our wide width shoes here

 
I just received my shoes, but they feel a little stiff. What can I do?

Goodyear-welted shoes do feel a tad stiff at first and require longer to break in, but they’ll comfortably mold to your feet with wear. Our tip for making the process a little bit easier? Rub a beeswax candle on the inside top edge of the shoe that rests against the back of your heel to soften the leather and eliminate the risk of blisters. Trust us, this actually works.

 

CARE

How should I care for my shoes?

We recommend using our exclusive shoe care kit. If you still have questions, please don't hesitate to call us at 805-845-4350 or email us at hello@theofficeofangelascott.com.

 

How should I care for my handbag?

You product has been crafted by experienced artisans with exclusive materials. Please prevent any contact with oil or alcohol-based substances such as cosmetics, perfume, hand sanitizer or disinfectants as they can damage leather and canvas products.
Leather is a living material that evolves, changes color, softens, and becomes patinated over time. It should be protected from humidity and prolonged exposure to light or extreme heat.

My tracking says delivered but I have not received my package yet:

We’re sorry to hear your goods have not arrived yet. Your package could have been delivered to a nearby neighbor, the shipping carrier left your package in a different area on your property, or the package was marked as delivered by the carrier and it has not been dropped off yet. If you did not receive your package as expected based on your tracking number, please allow 24 hours and then contact the shipping carrier with your concerns.

Please note, once the package exits our warehouse, the shipping carrier is responsible for signature requests and lost product. 

 

How is tax collected on purchases?

Many states have adopted requirements for online retailers to collect sales tax based on the volume or number of sales within each municipality. Accordingly, we collect sales tax in the following states: CA, CO, GA, IL, MA, MD, MI, MN, NC, NJ, NY, OH, PA, TX, VA, WA. Tax laws are complex and subject to change. As such, the states in which we collect sales tax will be updated according to legal requirements.

 

Pre-Orders

At The Office of Angela Scott, we are committed to creating timeless, beautiful footwear crafted for Women Who Mean Business.  As you may know, we are honored to work with a small family-owned and operated Portuguese factory that practices traditional Goodyear Welted production using sustainably sourced materials.

Due to the continued unpredictability in the supply chain, we will now be offering an option to pre-order. All of our handcrafted shoes available for pre-order will be tagged with their estimated ship-by date.

Pre-order will provide you with confirmation that you will be allocated this fabulous silhouette. Upon arrival of your shoes to our warehouse, you will receive a shipping confirmation email letting you know these beauties are on their way to you!

Payment is charged immediately at checkout, not when the item ships.

The “Ships by Date” listed is an approximation and is subject to change based on unforeseen circumstances. You will receive a shipping confirmation email as soon as your item ships.

Our return policy begins on the date your pre-order is received at your doorstep. You will have 14 days to return your product once received.

Please contact our customer support team at hello@theofficeofangelascott.com or give us a call at 805-845-4350 if you need to make any updates to your pre-order or have further questions about pre-order details.

The pair I want is sold out, will you be getting more?

You also can select the "Email Me When Available" button on any sold out product page to be notified immediately when that item is restocked.

 

Where does the name The Office of Angela Scott come from?

When Angela Scott launched in 2012, she wanted the collection to have a strong, sophisticated, traditional feeling. Hence "The Office” of Angela Scott, which is a nod to her grandfather and her father, because their “office” was where the magic happened, creativity flourished, and great things came to life. Perhaps even more so, it’s come to represent a spirit of community - the collective power of all women. As Angela would say, “We are the office.

 

Why are the shoes named Mr., Miss, Mrs. etc.?

Every one of the shoes Angela has designed is actually directly related to people that have inspired her; men, women, friends, family and a lot of times people she’s just met. There’s a saying: "If you're always slightly overdressed, you're never underdressed." The courtesy titles are her way of dressing up and bringing to life beautifully crafted women’s shoes.

 

Can these shoes be resoled?

Yes! Our shoes are made using the Goodyear welt construction, one of the oldest and most traditional shoe techniques. This method of hand stitching the soles to the uppers (versus cement construction or gluing together) allows the shoe to be repaired and resoled and ultimately provides our clients with an investment piece for many years to come.

 

Are your shoes long-lasting?

We believe in producing ethical and timeless shoes that prioritize craftsmanship, materials and construction over trend, and in turn reduce landfill waste and fast fashion consumption. Our shoes are Goodyear welted. Goodyear Welt construction is one of the oldest, most traditional shoe crafting techniques. This method of stitching the soles to the uppers with a welt is durable, breathable, and inherently sustainable as it also allows the shoe to be dismantled, repaired and resoled and ultimately last you a lifetime.
