FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The TOMS Alpargata features an elastic gore for flexibility, which can accommodate a range of foot widths. However, they are not specifically designed for extra-wide feet. Trying them on or checking customer reviews for fit experiences is recommended.
Can I replace the insole?
No, the insole is integrated and non-removable. It is designed with eco-friendly materials for comfort.
How do I know which size to order?
Refer to the UK sizing chart provided by TOMS and compare it with your usual shoe size. The Alpargata style is generally considered true to size.
What is the "One for One" program?
For every pair of TOMS shoes purchased, the company donates a pair of new shoes to a child in need. This initiative aims to improve health, education, and opportunities for children globally.
Are these waterproof?
No, the canvas material is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry weather conditions. Water-resistant sprays can offer some protection but do not make them waterproof.
How do I clean the grey canvas material?
Spot clean using a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Canvas can stretch slightly with wear. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in gently. Avoid forcing them on.
Discoloration or staining on canvas
Spot clean immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, use a specialized canvas cleaner, following product instructions carefully.
Insole feels flat or lacks arch support
The insole is designed with eco-content and is non-removable. For added support, consider using thin, neutral insoles that can be placed on top of the existing footbed if space allows.
