Can I replace individual parts of the shoe?

Yes, the modular design is intended to allow for potential replacement of individual components, promoting repairability and sustainability.

What is the main color of the "Barley Desert Moss" variant?

The main color is a tan ('Barley') with secondary moss green accents, creating a natural, earthy aesthetic.

What size foot is a UK 9 suitable for?

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These shoes are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, focusing on unique aesthetics and comfort. They are not optimized for high-impact athletic activities like running.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels loose or unstable after assembly

Ensure all interlocking parts of the sole are fully clicked into place. Re-press each segment firmly. Check lacing for proper tightness.

Difficulty disassembling or reassembling the shoe

Gently twist or wiggle the parts while pulling them apart. Ensure no debris is caught in the interlocking grooves. Refer to setup instructions.

Mud or debris stuck in interlocking parts

Use a soft brush and a damp cloth with mild soap to carefully clean the grooves. Rinse gently and allow to air dry completely before reassembly.

Uneven wear on sole components

Check for proper assembly alignment. Consider if the lacing is contributing to uneven pressure. Rotate shoes if worn daily.

Laces becoming frayed or damaged

Replace laces with standard flat laces of similar length. Ensure the replacement laces are compatible with the eyelet size.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Assembly: Unpack all components. Align the sole segments and press them together firmly until they click into place. Ensure all interlocking points are securely fastened.
  2. Lacing: Thread the laces through the designated eyelets. Due to the modular design, the lacing system might feel different from traditional sneakers; adjust for a snug, comfortable fit.

Compatibility:

  • Foot Type: Suitable for adult feet. The unisex design accommodates a wide range of foot shapes, though individuals with very wide or narrow feet may need to adjust lacing significantly.
  • Weather: Best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion, as water can affect the interlocking mechanism.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely.
  • Disassembly: If necessary for deep cleaning or part replacement, carefully pull the sole segments apart. Reassemble following the setup instructions.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain material integrity. Avoid storing heavy objects on top, which could stress the interlocking components.
