FAQs

Are these shoes intended for running?

While they utilize a performance 860v2 sole unit, they are designed as a fashion-focused hybrid loafer, not as a technical running shoe.

How do I maintain the polyester material?

Avoid machine washing. Spot clean with mild soap and cold water, and air dry naturally away from direct sunlight.

Can I wear these without socks?

Yes, the open-holed mesh is breathable, but for hygiene and comfort, we recommend no-show liners or thin athletic socks.

What is the sizing scale for these?

These shoes follow standard UK adult sizing for unisex models.

Does the 1906L offer arch support?

Yes, thanks to the integrated 860v2 sole technology, these provide significantly better arch and heel support than standard fashion loafers.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt trapped in the mesh upper

Use a soft brush to gently agitate the mesh, then wipe with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time

Check if the ABZORB SBS pods are compressed or dirty; ensure the shoes are not kept in extreme temperature fluctuations.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your 1906L loafers remain in top condition, follow these steps:

  1. Sizing: These are unisex and generally fit true to size. Ensure you have the correct UK size for your foot width to prevent heel slippage.
  2. Cleaning: Given the polyester mesh construction, avoid harsh scrubbing. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry debris, and spot-clean with mild soapy water using a microfiber cloth.
  3. Storage: Keep away from direct heat sources to prevent the synthetic overlays from warping or the glue bonds from weakening.
  4. Rotation: Allow the shoes to air out for 24 hours between heavy uses to maintain the integrity of the foam cushioning.
