FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
No, these boots are made from organic cotton and are not waterproof. They are suitable for dry to mildly damp conditions.
Can I machine wash these boots?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, especially the organic cotton and cork insole, and compromise the boot's structure.
How durable is the recycled rubber outsole?
The recycled rubber outsole is designed for durability and traction in urban environments, offering good resistance to wear for everyday use.
What does OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification mean?
It means that the textiles used in the boots have been tested for harmful substances and are therefore safe for human health.
How should I store these boots when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is 2.5cm, or approximately 1 inch, providing a low and comfortable profile.
Can the cork insole be removed?
The cork insole is integrated for comfort and breathability. While it might be possible to remove it carefully, it is not designed to be taken out for washing or replacement.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel tight or uncomfortable after first wear.
Wear the boots around the house for short periods to allow the organic cotton and cork to mold to your feet. Ensure laces are not over-tightened.
Difficulty zipping or unzipping.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. If the zipper feels stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) can be rubbed along the teeth for lubrication.
White color shows dirt easily.
Regularly wipe the boots with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild, color-safe fabric cleaner specifically designed for cotton, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Cork insole feels rough.
This is normal for cork; it provides grip and cushioning. If it feels excessively rough, a very light sanding with fine-grit sandpaper can be attempted, but use caution not to damage the cork.
