The Walk & Fly Irati 6001 are women's casual suede shoes with the air of a lace-up moccasin, a braided multicoloured lace and a speckled rubber sole. We selected them at Calzados Vesga because they join a simple, relaxed design with the comfort of a low, flexible sole: made for everyday wear, walks and travel. They are shown in Chocolate and are also available in Taupe.

A simple, comfortable suede shoe
A good everyday casual shoe has to be comfortable from the first step and easy to style. The 6001 manage this with a flexible suede that adapts to the foot, a moccasin vamp that gives the toes room and a low, light sole that follows the movement. The short lace is adjusted with a bow and does not need tying carefully every time.
The rubber sole, with a speckled look, is light and flexible, and leaves a low, clean profile.
It is a logical option if you want a different shoe, with a moccasin air, to wear every day with jeans, skirts or corduroy trousers.
Design and style: Chocolate
Chocolate is a deep dark brown, with the velvety feel typical of suede, which gives the shoe a warm air. The visible stitching outlines the moccasin vamp, and the braided multicoloured lace adds the counterpoint. The speckled sole, in a caramel tone, completes the whole and softens the dark colour of the suede.
The silhouette is low and rounded, with a continuous vamp, a clean heel with a small brand detail and a sole that protrudes slightly to give stability.
Materials and finish
The outer is suede, a leather with a velvety finish, flexible and pleasant to the touch, with visible stitching around the vamp. The inner lining is soft and the insole adds comfort. The sole is light, flexible rubber, with a multicoloured speckle.
The lace, braided with threads of several colours, passes through a single pair of eyelets and is tied in a short bow.
How to choose a moccasin-style suede shoe
When choosing a moccasin-style suede shoe, look at the material, the sole, the closure and the fit. Suede is soft and flexible, though it asks for more care than smooth leather. A low, light sole gives a natural stride. A simple closure, with few eyelets, lets you adjust the instep without fuss. And a good fit at the heel stops the shoe slipping off as you walk.
The 6001 bring these points together in a relaxed design that is easy to wear.
Everyday comfort
The comfort of an everyday shoe shows in three things: that it does not squeeze, that it holds the heel well and that the sole cushions. The 6001 have a comfort insole, a soft lining and a light, flexible sole, so you walk naturally all day.
A practical tip: if you wear thick socks or have a high instep, try half a size up. With thin socks, your usual size will be right. As well as whole sizes, there are half sizes (39.5 and 41.5) to fine-tune the fit.
When to wear them
For everyday wear, city walks, travel and the mid-season months, or for anyone who wants a light shoe with a moccasin air.
They are not mountain or rain footwear: they have no waterproof membrane and suede needs care. For rain or wet ground, specific footwear is better.
How to style them
With straight or wide jeans, corduroy trousers, midi skirts, knitted dresses or a light jacket. Chocolate goes with beiges, navy, greens and earth tones.
Tips for use and care
Suede marks with water and rubbing: brush it dry with a specific brush and apply a suede protector before the first outings. If they get wet, let them dry in the air, away from heat sources, with newspaper inside. Avoid grease stains and, if they appear, clean them with a product suited to suede. Alternate two pairs of shoes if you wear them daily so the lining dries completely between uses.
Size guide
The model comes in EU 35 to 43, with a standard fit: neither especially small nor especially large, and with half sizes 39.5 and 41.5. If you are between two sizes, choose the larger one, above all if you will wear thick socks or have a high instep. Approximate UK equivalents: EU 35 is about UK 2.5, EU 36 about UK 3.5, EU 37 about UK 4, EU 38 about UK 5, EU 39 about UK 6, EU 40 about UK 6.5, EU 41 about UK 7.5, EU 42 about UK 8 and EU 43 about UK 9; they are indicative only and vary between makers. If in doubt, write to us and we will help.
Care and maintenance
- Brush the suede dry with a specific brush, always in the same direction.
- Apply a suede protector before wearing and repeat it from time to time.
- Let them dry at room temperature, with newspaper inside and away from radiators.
- Do not put them in the washing machine or the dryer, which damage the suede and the bonding.
With these basic steps, the shoe keeps its look for a long time.
Our verdict at Calzados Vesga
We think it is a smart buy for anyone who wants a light, simple shoe with personality. Its strengths are the suede, the braided lace and the speckled sole; its limit is that it has no waterproof membrane and that suede needs care.
