FAQs

What is the heel height of the Valeriette sandals?

The total height of the sandal is 10 cm, with the heel measuring 8 cm and a platform of 2 cm.

Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?

The sandals have a regular fit. While the buckle allows for some adjustment, they may not be ideal for very wide feet. We recommend checking customer reviews or trying them on if possible.

How should I store these sandals when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in a dust bag or their original box, away from direct sunlight and moisture.

Can I wear these sandals in wet weather?

No, these sandals are not designed for wet weather. The raffia and leather materials can be damaged by water. Avoid wearing them in rain or on wet surfaces.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily made from 95% polypropylene raffia, with 5% sheep leather detailing.

Where are these sandals made?

These Castañer sandals are made in Spain.

Can the insoles be replaced if they wear out?

The insoles are integrated into the shoe's construction. For wear and tear, it's recommended to consult a professional cobbler for repair options.

Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness upon first wear

This is common with leather and raffia. Wear them for short periods indoors to gently break them in.

Raffia material snagged or frayed

Gently trim any loose threads with small scissors. For more significant damage, consult a professional cobbler.

Insole feels slippery after wear

Ensure feet are dry before wearing. A light dusting of talcum powder inside the shoe can sometimes help, but use sparingly.

Heel feels unstable on uneven surfaces

Exercise caution on uneven terrain. The heel height requires careful footing. Ensure the sole is clean for maximum grip.
