FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
While the materials are durable, we recommend spot-cleaning rather than machine washing to preserve the memory foam and structural integrity of the Slip-ins technology.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole can be removed for cleaning or if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Are they true to size?
Yes, they generally fit standard UK sizing, but the stretch-fit mesh offers a forgiving fit if your feet tend to widen throughout the day.
Can I use these for running?
These are designed for walking and casual activity. They lack the rigid stability features usually required for serious long-distance running.
Are the laces functional?
Yes, you can adjust the laces to customize the fit, but you can leave them tied and still use the Slip-in functionality effectively.
Troubleshooting
Heel slipping while walking
Adjust the laces slightly tighter to ensure the Heel Pillow is pressing firmly against your heel cup.
Insole feels compressed
Remove the insole, allow it to air dry outside the shoe for 24 hours, and replace it to restore its bounce.
Stains on the mesh upper
Use a soft brush and a mixture of water and gentle soap to lightly scrub the area, then air dry away from direct sunlight.
Pros and Cons

- 100% vegan-friendly materials

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these shoes utilize 'Hands Free' technology, there is no initial setup required; simply step into the shoe, and the Heel Pillow will guide your foot into place. For care, it is recommended to spot-clean the polyester mesh using a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a tumble dryer, as extreme heat can degrade the integrity of the memory foam and the adhesive components. Since these feature adjustable laces, you can tighten or loosen the fit slightly to match your preferred level of lockdown, although the elastic nature of the slip-in design is intended to remain snug without frequent adjustment.
