FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Classic Slip On design features elastic gore which offers some flexibility. However, they are not specifically designed for wide feet. If you have very wide feet, you may find them snug. Consider trying them on in person if possible.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Machine washing can damage the materials, affect the shape, and potentially ruin the cushioning and sole adhesion. Spot clean with mild soap and water instead.
What is the benefit of the CloudBound Sole?
The CloudBound Sole is designed to provide enhanced comfort and superior traction compared to traditional soles, making walking more comfortable and secure.
How long does the OrthoLite Eco LT insole typically last?
The lifespan of the insole depends on usage and care. OrthoLite insoles are known for their durability and cushioning. For optimal performance, follow the recommended care instructions and consider replacing them if cushioning significantly diminishes after extended wear.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the canvas upper is not waterproof. These shoes are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may cause the canvas to become saturated.
What is the main difference between this model and other TOMS Classics?
This 'Classic Slip On' model specifically features the newer CloudBound Sole and OrthoLite Eco LT insole for upgraded comfort and traction, along with the signature elastic gore for easy wear. Other Classic models might have different sole constructions or detailing.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight upon first wear.
Canvas can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them with thin socks for a short period or use a shoe stretcher designed for canvas shoes. Avoid wearing them for extended periods until they feel more comfortable.
Slight odor developing.
Remove the insoles and air them out separately. You can also use a shoe deodorizer spray or baking soda inside the shoes overnight. Ensure shoes are completely dry before wearing.
Discoloration on canvas upper.
For minor spots, try a gentle cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner or try a specialized canvas cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Traction seems reduced.
Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be hindering grip. Ensure the shoes are completely dry.
