Product Information

Full details

The TOMS Alpargata Classic Loafer Flat is designed for adults seeking everyday versatility with a minimalist aesthetic. Its key benefit is a secure yet flexible fit combined with soft, supportive cushioning for all-day comfort. A potential caveat is its low 13mm profile, which offers a natural feel but may not provide the arch support some users prefer. This shoe features an elastic gore panel, custom CloudBound foam insoles made with eco content, and a durable injected TPR sole.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Alpargata features an elastic gore panel that offers some flexibility. However, they are designed with a standard fit. If you have significantly wide feet, they might feel snug. Consider trying them on or looking at models specifically designed for wider widths if available.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the materials and construction of the shoe, including the insole and sole. It is best to spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.

What is the main benefit of the CloudBound foam insoles?

The CloudBound foam insoles are designed to provide soft, supportive cushioning for all-day comfort. They are also made with 50% eco content, including recycled materials.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the TOMS sizing chart for accurate measurements. The Alpargata Classic Loafer Flat generally fits true to size, but the elastic gore allows for some adaptability. If you are between sizes, it is often recommended to try the larger size for a more relaxed fit.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the TOMS Alpargata Classic Loafer Flat is not waterproof. The materials used are not designed to repel water, and prolonged exposure to moisture can damage the shoes. They are best suited for dry conditions.

What does the 13mm profile mean?

The 13mm profile refers to the low height of the injected TPR sole. This design offers a natural feel underfoot, allowing for a closer connection to the ground compared to shoes with thicker soles.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially.

The elastic gore is designed to stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them around the house for a few hours to allow them to conform to your foot shape. If they remain uncomfortable, consider if a different size would be more appropriate.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

The TPR sole provides traction, but like most footwear, may be less effective on very wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean and free from any debris. For increased grip, consider adding non-slip sole grips.

Insole cushioning feels insufficient for long periods.

While designed for comfort, the CloudBound foam offers a specific level of cushioning. If more support is desired, consider using aftermarket insoles or orthotics that fit within the shoe.

Noticeable wear on the sole after moderate use.

The injected TPR sole is durable for its class, but heavy or extensive daily use will eventually lead to wear. Rotate your footwear to distribute wear and tear. Inspect the sole regularly for any damage that might affect stability.
