Christian Louboutin offers different types of signature red soles depending on the style.

Christian Louboutin's iconic red soles are created by applying a signature red lacquer to natural European leather soles. Over time and with wear, this lacquer may gradually fade, revealing the natural colour of the leather beneath.
This wear is a normal and expected characteristic of the red sole and does not constitute a manufacturing defect.
The red soles on our shoes are fragile and must be tried on a clean carpeted surface.

If you are unhappy with the natural wear of our soles, they can be repainted with our signature red color. This is not an in-house service; however, we recommend several cobblers that have perfected these techniques as well as others to recover our soles.

A selection of styles is now available with the 'Everlasting Red' sole. Developed through an exclusive process by the Maison, it is designed to preserve the intensity of Christian Louboutin's iconic red for longer, while providing enhanced grip underfoot. The appearance is very similar to leather, with a slightly more polished effect on the front section.

Please refer to the product description to identify the sole featured on the selected style.
