Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
The chambray material and CloudBound™ insoles will naturally mold to your foot with wear. Try wearing them around the house for short periods to break them in.
Slight rubbing or discomfort on the heel
This can sometimes occur during the break-in period. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks or try a small bandage on the affected area until the shoes soften.
Color transfer from the floral lining
While unlikely, if you notice color transfer, it may be due to excessive moisture. Ensure shoes are completely dry before wearing and avoid wearing with light-colored socks if damp.
Outsole shows wear and tear
The TPR outsole is durable, but heavy use can lead to wear. For minor scuffs, a rubber cleaner can be used. Significant wear may indicate it's time for replacement.
