Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The 'Comfort last' is designed to accommodate a comfortable fit. While not specifically designed for extra-wide feet, many users find the fit accommodating for standard to slightly wider feet due to the lace-up adjustability.

Can the insole be replaced with my own orthotics?

Yes, the microfibre insole is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics or preferred insoles for added support or comfort.

What is the best season to wear these shoes?

These shoes are recommended for the autumn/winter season due to their construction and materials, offering comfort and durability in cooler weather.

How do I clean the bamboo and microfibre lining?

Gently wipe the lining with a slightly damp cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry completely afterward. Avoid soaking the material.

Are these shoes waterproof?

These shoes are water-resistant due to the rubber sole and material choice, but they are not fully waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles.

What does 360º stitching mean?

360º stitching refers to a construction method where the stitching goes all the way around the shoe, connecting the upper to the sole. This enhances durability, flexibility, and the overall lifespan of the shoe.

How should I store these shoes when not in use?

Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. Ensure they are clean and dry before long-term storage.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the lace-up fastening. If still tight, ensure you have the correct size. The Comfort last is designed to mold to the foot over time.

Feet feel damp

Ensure socks are made of breathable material. Allow shoes to air dry completely between wears, especially in humid conditions. Check that the lining and insole are clean and dry.

Reduced traction on surfaces

Clean the 100% rubber sole to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting grip. Ensure shoes are dry before walking on slick surfaces.
