FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The TOUCHit footbed adapts to foot shape, offering some flexibility. However, if you have significantly wide feet, it's recommended to try them on first, as the shoe's overall structure is designed for a standard fit.
How do I clean the vegan leather and textile upper?
Gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution diluted with water and a soft cloth, then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Allow to air dry.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the ANTIslide sole offers traction, the shoe is made from a mix of textile and synthetic materials. It is not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may affect the material and comfort. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.
What is the main benefit of the TOUCHit footbed?
The TOUCHit footbed is designed to mold to the unique shape of your foot, providing personalized cushioning and support for enhanced, all-day comfort.
How secure is the buckle fastening?
The buckle is designed to keep the ballerina securely on your foot, preventing slippage during normal wear. Ensure it is fastened correctly for optimal security.
What does 'vegan' mean in the product description?
It means that no animal products or by-products were used in the manufacturing of these shoes, making them suitable for individuals seeking animal-friendly footwear options.
What is the expected lifespan of these ballerinas?
With proper care and regular use, these ballerinas are designed for durability. Factors like frequency of wear, surface conditions, and adherence to care instructions will influence their lifespan.
Troubleshooting
Ballerinas feel too tight initially
The TOUCHit footbed is designed to adapt to your foot shape over time. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your feet for a more comfortable fit.
Buckle feels loose or difficult to fasten
Ensure the buckle prong is correctly inserted through the appropriate hole in the strap. If the strap is excessively long, consider if the size is correct or if an alternative fastening method is needed.
Soles feel slippery on very smooth surfaces
While designed with ANTIslide technology, extremely polished surfaces may still offer less grip. Consider adding subtle grip enhancers if this is a frequent concern in specific environments.
Slight discoloration on the material
This could be due to environmental factors or contact with other materials. Try gentle cleaning with a damp cloth. For synthetic parts, a mild cleaner specifically for synthetics might be used cautiously.
