Full details

The TOMS Alpargata Classic Loafer Flat is designed for adults seeking comfortable, slip-on footwear with an eco-conscious approach. Its key benefit is all-day comfort provided by custom CloudBound foam insoles, made with recycled and bio-based materials. A potential caveat is the non-removable insole, which may limit customization for some users. This shoe features earthwise textile uppers and linings, an elastic gore for easy fit, and a durable TPR outsole.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Alpargata Classic Loafer Flat features an elastic gore for a flexible fit. While not specifically designed for wide feet, the gore can accommodate slightly wider feet than a traditional flat. If you have significantly wide feet, consider trying them on first.

Can I replace the insoles?

No, the CloudBound foam insoles are non-removable and are an integral part of the shoe's comfort system.

Are these waterproof?

No, the earthwise textile uppers are not waterproof. These shoes are best suited for dry conditions and should be kept away from heavy rain or wet environments.

What is the purpose of the CloudBound foam insole?

The CloudBound foam insole is custom-designed to provide superior cushioning, comfort, and support for all-day wear. It is made with 30% eco content.

How do I know if I have the right size?

It is recommended to consult the TOMS size chart and consider your typical shoe size. As fit can vary, trying them on is the best way to ensure a comfortable fit, especially if you are between sizes or have specific width requirements.

Can these shoes be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes as it can damage the materials and construction. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What does 'Earthwise' refer to?

'Earthwise' indicates that the materials used in the uppers and lining are more environmentally conscious, often incorporating recycled or sustainable components.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel slightly tight

The textile material may stretch slightly with wear. Wear them around the house for a short period to allow them to conform to your feet. Avoid wearing in wet conditions during the break-in period.

Difficulty removing shoes

Ensure your feet are dry. If the elastic gore feels restrictive, gently flex the shoe before putting it on. The gore is designed to provide a secure fit, so some resistance is normal.

Minor scuffs on textile upper

For light scuffs, try gently buffing with a clean, dry cloth. For more persistent marks, use a damp cloth with a very mild soap solution, then wipe with a clean damp cloth.

Foot odor

Allow shoes to air out completely between wears. You can also lightly sprinkle baking soda inside the shoe overnight to absorb odors. Ensure insoles are dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  2. Cleaning Insoles: Spot clean the CloudBound foam insoles with a damp cloth. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
  3. Outsole: The TPR outsole can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
  4. Drying: Always air dry shoes away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent damage to the materials.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
