Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Tabi Mary-Janes remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since these shoes feature a split-toe construction, ensure you have appropriate Tabi-style socks if you prefer not to wear them barefoot. To clean, use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dust, and apply a leather-specific conditioner periodically to keep the calf leather supple. Avoid submerging the leather in water and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration or leather stiffening.
