What materials are these sandals made from?

How should I clean the velvet material?

Use a soft brush for general cleaning. Avoid moisture and harsh chemicals. For tougher stains, professional cleaning is advised.

Is the Tabi split-toe design comfortable for everyone?

The split-toe design is distinctive and may take some getting used to. It's recommended to try them on and wear them for short periods to assess comfort.

Can I wear these sandals in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear velvet shoes in wet weather as moisture can damage the material. The leather sole also offers limited traction in wet conditions.

What is the significance of the white back stitching?

The white back stitching is a subtle but recognizable signature detail of Maison Margiela, indicating the brand's craftsmanship.

Troubleshooting

Split-toe feels uncomfortable

Wear the sandals around the house for short periods to allow your feet to adjust. Consider if the split-toe design is suitable for your foot shape and preference.

Velvet material shows scuffs or marks

Gently brush the affected area with a soft-bristled brush. For deeper marks, professional cleaning is recommended. Avoid exposing the shoes to abrasive surfaces.

Ankle strap feels loose or tight

Adjust the strap using the metal buckle until a comfortable and secure fit is achieved. Ensure the buckle is properly secured.

Slipping on smooth surfaces

Consider having a cobbler add a protective rubber sole layer for improved traction and durability.
