TOMS Alp Rope 2.0 Slippers & Sandals - White - Size: 4

No, the TOMS Alp Rope 2.0 is not waterproof. The textile upper and jute midsole are not designed for wet conditions and can be damaged by excessive moisture.

These espadrilles are designed to be worn with or without socks. Many prefer to wear them sockless for a true espadrille feel. If wearing socks, consider thin liner socks to maintain the shoe's aesthetic.

The Alp Rope 2.0 features elastic gore for a flexible fit. They should feel snug but not uncomfortably tight. If you are between sizes, it is often recommended to try the smaller size first, as the materials may stretch slightly with wear.

The CloudBound foam insoles are engineered to provide superior cushioning and support, ensuring comfort throughout the day, even with extended wear.

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the materials, especially the jute midsole and textile upper. Spot cleaning and hand washing the insoles are the preferred methods.

The rope wrap on the outsole contributes to the classic espadrille style while the rubber base provides durability and traction for walking.

The elastic gore aims to provide a snug fit. If too tight, wear them around the house for a short period to allow them to stretch slightly. If too loose, consider using a heel grip or ensuring you have the correct size. The removable insole can also be replaced with a slightly thicker or thinner one if available.

For minor spots, try spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, as this can damage the materials. For persistent stains, professional cleaning might be an option.

The rubber outsole provides traction on most dry surfaces. If you experience slipperiness, ensure the soles are clean and dry. For added grip, consider using anti-slip sole protectors available at shoe repair shops.
