FAQs
Are these shoes truly zero-drop?
The Wynona 06 features a 0.5cm heel, which is minimal but distinct from a perfectly flat zero-drop shoe.
Can I replace the elastic laces?
Yes, if the elastic loses its tension over time, you can replace them with standard laces or a similar elastic lacing kit.
Is the leather waterproof?
While durable, the leather is not marketed as waterproof; it is best to treat it with a leather protector spray if you plan to wear them in light rain.
Does this shoe come in half sizes?
Yes, the Josef Seibel range frequently includes half sizes to ensure a precise fit.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the wide toe box is specifically designed to accommodate various foot widths comfortably.
How do I maintain the shape of the trainers?
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and absorb excess moisture.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot
Adjust the tension of the elasticated laces to provide more volume in the instep area.
Leather surface shows signs of scuffing
Use a leather cream matched to the blue pigment to buff out minor scuffs and restore the finish.
Foot fatigue during long-distance walking
The muscles in your feet may need time to adapt to the barefoot design; alternate with your previous footwear until fully adjusted.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Wynona 06 trainers maintain their performance and longevity, follow these care guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes are designed with a standard fitting. Ensure you select your standard UK adult size, keeping in mind the additional width provided by the toe box.
- Break-in Period: Since they are made of leather and follow a barefoot-style geometry, it is recommended to wear them for short durations initially to allow the material to conform to your foot.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt from the leather. For deeper cleaning, apply a leather-specific conditioner or cleaner. Avoid soaking the leather in water as this can cause stiffness.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack or the elastic laces to lose tension.
