FAQs
Can I wear these for long walks?
The Solei sandals are designed for comfort, but as they are dressy sandals, they are better suited for light walking and social events rather than heavy-duty hiking.
How do I know if the size is right?
Your heel and toes should be fully supported on the footbed without hanging over the edges, and the straps should feel secure but not restrict circulation.
Are these sandals waterproof?
No, they are made of leather and should be kept away from excessive water to prevent staining or damage to the material.
Can the straps be adjusted for narrow feet?
Yes, the three adjustable straps are specifically designed to tighten the fit, making them a great option for narrow feet.
What is the height of the wedge?
The Solei features a low wedge design, providing a subtle lift intended for comfort and balance.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel too tight or dig into skin
Loosen the straps slightly to allow for foot swelling during the day or consider wearing them for shorter intervals to break in the leather.
Foot slides forward during walking
Tighten the two front-facing straps securely to ensure the forefoot is held firmly in place.
Leather looks dull
Apply a high-quality leather cream or conditioner to restore the natural oils and shine of the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, first loosen all three straps completely before inserting your foot. Position your heel securely against the back of the sandal, then tighten the front two straps to secure the forefoot, followed by the ankle strap to lock the heel in place. Because these are made from genuine leather, it is important to store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or drying of the material. If the leather becomes wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators. Periodically clean with a soft, damp cloth and use an appropriate leather conditioner to maintain the suppleness of the straps.
