FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The TOMS Alpargata Oxford Flat features elastic gore for a flexible fit, which can accommodate slightly wider feet. However, they are generally designed for a standard width. It is recommended to try them on if possible.

What is the difference between Heritage Canvas and Recycled Cotton uppers?

Heritage Canvas often refers to a more traditional, durable weave, while Recycled Cotton uppers are made from processed cotton fibers that have been repurposed. Both are used in the Earthwise initiative for sustainability.

Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction, especially the insole and outsole. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.

What is the '50% eco-content' in the insole?

This refers to the insole being composed of 50% environmentally friendly materials, specifically a blend of 25% recycled PU foam, 15% recycled rubber, and 10% bio oil.

How do I ensure the best fit?

TOMS shoes are designed to be snug at first but will stretch and mold to your feet. Wear them around the house for a bit to confirm the fit before wearing them outdoors.

Is the insole removable for cleaning?

No, the insole is non-removable. Cleaning should be done on the exterior and interior lining using a damp cloth.

What is the typical lifespan of these shoes?

With proper care and regular wear, these shoes are designed for durability. Lifespan can vary based on usage frequency and environmental conditions, but many users report several years of satisfactory wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel a bit stiff initially.

Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow them to break in. The recycled cotton and canvas will soften with use.

Exterior fabric shows dirt or marks.

Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a small amount of mild soap and water, then wipe clean and air dry.

Insole does not offer enough cushioning.

Since the insole is non-removable, consider using thin, specialized insoles designed for casual shoes if additional cushioning is desired. Ensure they do not significantly alter the fit.

Sizing seems slightly off.

TOMS Alpargatas are designed for a snug fit initially, especially with elastic gore. Ensure your heel is comfortably seated. If significant discomfort persists, double-check the size guide for UK 13.
