Full details
The Colors of California Leder Slide is a minimalist leather mule sandal designed for adult females seeking comfortable and stylish footwear for spring and summer.

FAQs
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The mule design offers a moderate width. If you have very wide feet, the leather may require significant breaking in, or they might not provide enough comfort.
Can I wear these for walking long distances?
These sandals are best suited for casual wear and short distances due to their flat sole and lack of arch support. For extended walking, consider footwear with more cushioning and support.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive water, as this can damage the leather.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made of durable rubber, designed for everyday wear and traction.
Do these sandals have arch support?
No, these sandals feature a flat sole construction and do not provide built-in arch support.
Can I wear these in wet conditions?
While the rubber sole offers some grip, the leather upper is not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive water. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet environments.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff initially
Wear the sandals around the house for short periods to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber soles are clean and dry. If the issue persists, consider a light scuffing of the sole with fine-grit sandpaper or consulting a cobbler.
Discoloration from water exposure
Allow the sandals to air dry completely away from direct heat. For future care, consider using a leather protectant spray suitable for the material.
