It can charge anywhere. When you are installing or moving it. To fix possible issues with the suede I bought a fairly cheap nubuck and suede kit from Kiwi, which you can find here on Amazon. look wise it is eye catcher and worth the price All in all, Im a happy user. But it didnt take long for those rods to fill up with shirts, jeans and slacks. The footbed has a super firm, foam type cushion under the leather lining that feels like it will mold to my foot but only time will tell. Also because of the tightness, they were super hot, which Ive never had a problem with in a sheepskin slipper. My feet tend to run hot, and I usually use sandals for quick jaunts out until the temperature drops below about 45F, so these will see quite a bit of use from me. These are great quality.
