FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Recanati features a water-resistant outsole, but they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged or worn in extreme wet weather.

Do I need to treat the leather before the first wear?

While not strictly necessary, applying a protective leather spray can help repel dirt and minor moisture.

How should I clean the breathable sole?

Use a damp cloth to wipe the outer sole, ensuring you do not soak the internal fabric components.

Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?

The internal space may accommodate thin aftermarket insoles, but the shoe is designed to be worn with its standard footbed for optimal breathability.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Geox Recanati has a standard fit. Individuals with significantly wide feet may find them snug, so trying them on with thin socks first is advised.

Troubleshooting

Leather looks dull after repeated wear

Apply a small amount of leather polish or conditioner to restore the original luster.

Shoes feel too tight initially

Wear them for short periods around the house with socks to allow the leather to stretch and mold to your foot shape.

Squeaking sound when walking

Check if the insoles have shifted; reposition them or ensure the inside of the shoe is completely dry.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the Recanati is a slip-on model, no initial setup is required. To ensure a comfortable fit, it is recommended to wear thin, breathable socks during the first few uses as the leather conforms to the foot. For care, wipe the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, which could cause the leather to crack. Applying a quality leather conditioner periodically will help maintain the finish and suppleness of the black leather.
