FAQs

What are the main materials used in the Yamabushi Sneaker?

The sneaker is primarily constructed from suede leather inserts and technical fabric, with a cork insole and a rubber sole.

How much height does the sole add?

The raised serrated sole adds approximately 5 cm to your height.

Are these suitable for hiking?

While inspired by trail running, they are best suited for everyday wear and light trails due to their construction and materials. They are not designed for rigorous hiking.

How do I clean the suede parts?

Use a dedicated suede brush for general cleaning and a suede eraser for marks. Always protect with a suede waterproofing spray.

Is the cork insole removable?

Yes, the antibacterial cork insole can typically be removed for airing or cleaning.

What does 'Yamabushi' refer to?

Yamabushi are semi-mythical mountain ascetics in Japan, often associated with nature and spiritual practices, inspiring the trail-like aesthetic of the shoe.

Can the multicolor design be considered gender-neutral?

While marketed towards women, the unisex design elements and multicolor palette can be styled by anyone who appreciates the aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a dry suede brush to gently restore the nap. For tougher spots, use a suede eraser and consider a suede protector spray.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure laces are correctly adjusted. The antibacterial cork insole may require a short break-in period. If discomfort persists, check if the sizing is accurate.

Sole losing grip

Clean the serrated sole thoroughly to remove any embedded debris that might be reducing traction.
