FAQs

What material are the Carvela Bormio Buckle sandals made from?

The main body of the sandal is crafted from beige raffia fabric, complemented by a bone-coloured chunky sole and gold-tone metal buckles.

Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?

The sandals feature two adjustable straps across the foot, which can offer some flexibility. However, their suitability depends on the specific width of the feet and how much adjustment the buckles provide.

How should I clean the raffia material?

It is recommended to spot clean the raffia with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or prolonged exposure to water to prevent damage.

Can I wear these sandals in wet conditions?

The raffia material is not ideal for wet conditions and may be damaged. It is best to wear these sandals in dry weather.

What type of outfit do these sandals best complement?

These sandals are best suited for casual and semi-casual outfits such as summer dresses, skirts, shorts, and casual trousers.

What is the sole of the sandal made of?

The sole is described as a chunky sole in a bone colour, providing a modern finish and cushioning.

Do the buckles serve a functional purpose?

Yes, the gold-tone buckles are functional and allow for adjustment of the two straps across the foot to secure the sandal.

Troubleshooting

Straps feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the gold-tone buckles on the straps to find a comfortable and secure fit.

Raffia material appears dirty.

Use a clean, slightly damp cloth to gently wipe the affected area. For stubborn marks, consult a specialist cleaner for raffia or natural fibers.

Buckle is stiff.

Gently try to move the buckle back and forth. If it remains stiff, apply a tiny amount of silicone-based lubricant to the hinge mechanism, ensuring it doesn't stain the fabric.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

If experiencing slipperiness, consider adding grip pads to the sole, especially if frequently walking on smooth indoor or wet outdoor surfaces.
