FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Castañer Joel T is made of suede and jute, both of which are sensitive to water and should not be worn in the rain.
How do I determine my size?
The Joel T fits true to UK sizing. We recommend selecting your standard size as the elastic gussets allow for some natural movement.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, never put your suede espadrilles in a washing machine, as the water and agitation will permanently damage the suede and the jute sole.
Are these suitable for long walks?
They are comfortable for casual walking, but because they lack the arch support of a traditional sneaker, they are best suited for leisure activities rather than long-distance hiking.
What is the best way to store them?
Store them in a breathable cloth bag or a cool, dry closet to allow the material to air out while keeping it away from dust and direct sun.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or flat
Use a soft-bristle suede brush to gently lift the fibers and restore the original texture.
Difficulty putting on the shoe
Ensure the elastic side panels are fully stretched; if the shoe feels tight, use a shoe horn to help slide the heel in without damaging the back of the shoe.
Minor scuffs on the suede
Gently rub the area with a rubber suede eraser to lift the marks without damaging the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Since the Joel T is a slip-on model, no initial setup is required. For compatibility, these shoes run true to standard UK sizing, and the elastic inserts provide a flexible fit across different foot widths.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and revitalize the nap of the material.
- Stain Treatment: For minor spots, use a suede eraser. Do not use water or standard shoe polish.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the suede from fading or drying out.
- Moisture Protection: Avoid wearing in the rain; if they become damp, allow them to air dry slowly away from direct heat sources.
