FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Alpargata Mule features an elastic gore for a flexible fit, which can accommodate slightly wider feet. However, they are designed based on a standard width.
Can I remove the insoles to use my own orthotics?
No, the CloudBound foam insoles are non-removable.
What is the best way to clean the beige exterior?
Use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher spots, a very mild soap solution with a soft brush can be used, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Alpargata Mule is not waterproof. They are designed for casual wear and light conditions.
What does 'vegan materials' mean in this context?
It means that no animal products or by-products were used in the manufacturing of the shoe, including the materials and adhesives.
How durable is the outsole?
The RMAT outsole is a blend of EVA and rubber, designed for everyday wear to provide good traction and durability for casual use.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially.
The Alpargata Mule may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and they should stretch to fit your foot comfortably.
Slight squeaking noise when walking.
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Ensure there is no debris trapped in the sole. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole (if possible) or on the contact points might help, though the insole is fixed.
Color transfer from shoe to socks.
This can happen with new dyed materials, especially when wet. Ensure the shoes are dry before wearing. Washing the inside of the shoes with a damp cloth might help reduce excess dye.
