FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The fit can vary, but the suede material does offer some flexibility. If you have particularly wide feet, it is recommended to try them on in person or check detailed sizing charts if available.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the suede is treated for some protection, it is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the suede's condition. Using a waterproofing spray is recommended for light moisture.

How long does the 'Contour Cushion' footbed typically last?

The lifespan of the footbed depends on usage and wear. It is designed for comfort and support, but if it becomes flattened or less supportive over time, it can be removed and replaced.

What type of socks are best to wear with these?

These shoes pair well with casual socks, no-show socks, or can even be worn sockless for a more relaxed feel, depending on personal preference and comfort.

How often should I reapply suede protector?

Reapplication frequency depends on usage and exposure. It is generally recommended to reapply after cleaning or every few months of regular wear to maintain optimal protection.

What is the primary advantage of the 'super-grippy sole'?

The primary advantage is increased durability and enhanced traction on various surfaces, providing a more stable and secure walking experience.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears discolored or stained

Use a specialized suede cleaner and a suede brush. For persistent stains, test a small, inconspicuous area first before applying cleaner to the entire shoe. Ensure shoes dry naturally.

Shoes feel too tight after initial wear

Suede naturally stretches and molds to the foot. Wear them for short periods initially. If still uncomfortable, consider removing the Contour Cushion footbed for a slightly more relaxed fit.

Sole shows signs of wear quickly

While designed for durability, excessive wear on harsh surfaces can accelerate wear. Ensure you are using appropriate footwear for strenuous activities and clean the sole periodically to maintain grip.

Water spots on suede

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. Applying a suede protector beforehand helps prevent this.
