FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The shoes feature a 'Comfort last' designed for a comfortable fit, and the lace-up fastening allows for some adjustment. However, for significantly wide feet, it's recommended to try them on if possible.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, the fabric upper is not waterproof. These shoes are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions and are ideal for autumn/winter casual wear, not heavy rain.
What is the heel height of these shoes?
These shoes feature a flat heel, prioritizing stability and comfort for all-day wear.
How do I clean the red fabric exterior?
Gently wipe the fabric with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using strong detergents or abrasive materials to prevent damage to the colour and texture.
Is the insole removable for washing?
Yes, the microfibre insole is removable, allowing for easy cleaning or replacement with custom orthotics.
What materials are the shoes made of?
The lining is made of 70% bamboo and 30% microfibre. The sole is 100% rubber. The outer fabric is specified as fabric.
Are these shoes available in other colours?

Troubleshooting
Laces becoming worn or dirty
Replace laces with standard shoelaces of a similar length. Clean existing laces by hand washing with mild soap and water.
Slightly stiff feel on first wear
Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow them to naturally mold to your feet. The Comfort last and 360º stitching are designed to break in smoothly.
Odour from the lining
Remove the insole and air out the shoes in a well-ventilated area. Sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the shoe overnight, then thoroughly clean out the powder.
