Product Insights
The Simons Patent Leather Kitten Heel Pumps Made In Portugal Women are a 195 CAD Simons-exclusive, direct-retail design with genuine leather upper, faux-leather lining and fixed non-removable faux-leather footbed, and a patent finish that is a cured PU topcoat over corrected, buffed grain rather than polished leather; in stock across twelve color-and-size combinations, with one review. The core promise is a made-in-Portugal, Canada-designed pointed kitten heel at one price across both colorways and all six whole EU sizes 36-41, without size or color surcharge or designer markup. The main tradeoff is patent upkeep: scuffs strip gloss coating rather than leather, the vamp crease is where hairline cracks start, and care must avoid standard leather conditioners, alcohol, abrasives, and shoe polish; wipe with water and mild soap, use water- or silicone-based products, store cool, dark, dry in a breathable bag, and keep away from heat or sealed plastic. The ivory or cream beige pair shrugs off light rain and wipes clean but can bubble or peel under heavy rain or slush, yellows irreversibly under UV, and draws dye from dark fabrics, with set-in grime addressed only by diluted alcohol; Brown carries the same 195 CAD with less yellowing and dye-transfer upkeep. The 4 cm heel shifts load: arch loading rises from 1.06% to 11.43% of body weight, central-heel load drops from 14.32% to 0.89%, and peak forefoot pressure runs about 30% higher than a flat, concentrated under the big toe. The pointed patent toe box has almost no give and will not stretch, a thin gel insert is the only footbed upgrade, the slightly textured outsole is a surface finish rather than wet-weather tread, and wide-footed or between-size buyers should order a half size up.
Verified claims
- Patent finish
- The mirror finish is a cured PU topcoat over corrected, buffed grain, not polished leather.
- Scuff damage
- A scuff strips a layer of gloss coating, not the leather underneath.
- Flex cracking
- Hairline cracks start at the vamp crease, where the shoe flexes with every step.
- Care products
- Skip standard leather conditioners that sit on the non-porous patent film and dull it; use a water- or silicone-based product.
- Yellowing
- UV light yellows the Ivory/Cream Beige patent finish irreversibly.
- Storage
- Store cool, dark and dry in a breathable bag; heat and sealed plastic speed coating breakdown.
- Cleaning
- Wipe with water and a drop of mild soap; never alcohol, abrasives or shoe polish.
- Stain removal
- Dilute one part alcohol to two or three of water to lift set-in grime on the ivory pair.
- Wet weather
- Wipes clean and shrugs off light rain, but heavy rain and slush can bubble or peel the coating.
- Dye transfer
- The coating draws dye from dark fabrics, staining the ivory finish.
- Variant choice
- The yellowing and dye-transfer upkeep applies to Ivory only; Brown is the same 195 CAD.
- Sizing
- Wide-footed or between-size buyers should order a half size up.
- Arch support
- The 4 cm heel lifts arch loading from 1.06% to 11.43% of body weight.
- Heel ergonomics
- The 4 cm heel cuts central-heel load to 0.89% of body weight, from 14.32% in a flat.
- Forefoot load
- Peak forefoot pressure runs about 30% higher than a flat, concentrated under the big toe.
- Footbed
- Cushioned faux-leather footbed is fixed and non-removable, so a thin gel insert is the upgrade
- Traction
- The slightly textured outsole is a surface finish, not a wet-weather tread.
- Material
- Genuine leather upper, unlike synthetic PU competitors, but the lining and sock are faux leather.
- Fit
- The pointed patent toe box has almost no give, so the shoe will not stretch to fit.
- Cost structure
- Sold direct by Simons, so CA$195 funds construction, not a designer markup.
- Exclusivity
- Simons exclusive, designed in Canada and made in Portugal, not mass-market
- Interior materials
- Faux-leather lining and footbed, unlike the leather-lined Simons siblings.
- Durability
- Scuffs scrape the gloss film, not the leather; the toe-box crease cracks first.
- Water resistance
- Patent finish sheds light rain, but slush or snow can bubble the coating.
- Price parity
- Both colorways and all six sizes list at the same 195 CAD, with no size surcharge.
- Size run
- Sizes 36-41 in whole EU steps only, in both colorways, with no half sizes.
- Variant availability
- All twelve color and size combinations are in stock, with both shades in the full 36-41 run.
- Price positioning
- Simons designs and retails the shoe itself, so no brand licensing markup sits on the CA$195.
- Ivory care
- Ivory patent yellows irreversibly under UV and lifts dye from dark fabrics.
- Variant pricing
- All 12 colour-and-size combinations carry the same CA$195 price.
- Ivory colourway
- The ivory finish shrugs off water but yellows irreversibly in light and picks up dye from dark fabrics.

| Patent Leather Kitten Heel Pumps Made In Portugal Women: Choose this if you want a classic pointed-toe pump with a low 1.5 inch (4 cm) kitten heel and a glossy genuine leather upper. This Simons exclusive, designed in Canada and made in Portugal, has a cushioned faux-leather footbed, a slightly textured outsole, and comes in sizes 36 to 41 in Ivory/Cream Beige and Brown. Note that the lining and sock are synthetic, so it is not an all-leather interior.[1] | Kitten Heel Leather Slingback Pumps Women: Choose this if you want a pointed-toe slingback pump with a modest kitten heel of 2 inches (5 cm), a genuine leather upper and lining, a cushioned leather footbed, and an elastic slingback strap at the heel. It comes in Black or Brown in European sizes 36 to 41, and is a Simons exclusive designed in Canada. Note that the outer sole is smooth with anti-slip rubber only at the heel, which may matter on slippery surfaces.[2,3,4,5] | Snake Leather Kitten Heel Pumps Made In Portugal Women: Choose this if you want a Simons-exclusive pump made in Portugal with a pointed toe, a low 4 cm (1.5 inches) kitten heel, and a snake-print leather upper, available in the Snake color in sizes 36 through 41. The cushioned faux-leather footbed and black rubber heel tips add everyday comfort to the dressed-up silhouette. Note that the listing is inconsistent about the upper: the feature text describes a textured faux-snakeskin finish, while the composition information states the upper is leather.[6,7,8] |
