Product Information

Full details

This FARM Rio Woven Platform Sandal is designed for adult females seeking a blend of artisanal detail and everyday comfort. Its key benefit is the unique basket-weave pattern and golden stud accents, offering an elegant yet laid-back aesthetic. A potential consideration is that the wooden sole may require a break-in period for optimal comfort. This sandal features a rich brown leather upper, a distinctive crisscross silhouette, a sturdy wooden platform, and decorative golden studs. It is crafted in Brazil and includes a shoe box.

FAQs

What is the best way to clean the woven leather?

Gently wipe the woven leather with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner for brown leather, always testing on a small, hidden area first. Avoid soaking the leather.

How do I care for the wooden platform?

Wipe the wooden platform with a slightly damp cloth. Ensure it dries completely away from heat sources. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners on the wood.

Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?

The woven design offers some flexibility, but the sandal has a standard width. If you have particularly wide feet, trying them on is recommended to assess comfort.

Can I wear these sandals in wet weather?

These sandals are best suited for dry or mildly humid conditions. The leather and wooden components are not designed for prolonged exposure to water, which can cause damage.

What is the heel height of the platform?

The product details do not specify the exact heel height, but it is a substantial wooden platform designed to provide elevation.

Where are these sandals made?

These sandals are made in Brazil.

What size should I choose if I'm between sizes?

While specific advice varies by brand, generally, if a sandal has a substantial sole like this wooden platform, it's often recommended to size up if you are between sizes to ensure adequate room and comfort, especially as the leather may stretch slightly.

Troubleshooting

Sandals feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

This is common with wooden platforms. Wear them for short periods indoors to allow the leather to soften and the platform to conform to your foot's shape. Consider wearing thin socks during the break-in period.

Leather appears dry or dull.

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or cream specifically for brown leather. Test in an inconspicuous area first, then gently rub into the leather with a soft cloth.

Scuffs or marks on the wooden platform.

For minor scuffs, try a commercial wood scratch remover or a paste of baking soda and water. For deeper damage, professional repair may be necessary.

Slipping on wet surfaces.

The rubber sole offers some traction, but caution is advised on wet surfaces. Ensure the rubber sole is clean and dry. Avoid wearing in heavy rain or on very slippery surfaces.

Care: To maintain the quality of your sandals:

  1. Leather Upper: Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for brown leather, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid excessive moisture.
  2. Wooden Platform: Clean the wooden sole with a slightly damp cloth. Do not saturate the wood. Allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
  3. Rubber Sole: Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure it is dried thoroughly.
  4. Storage: Store the sandals in their original shoe box or a dust bag in a cool, dry place to protect them from dust and damage. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade the leather.
