FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Alpargata features an elastic gore for ease of fit, which can accommodate a slightly wider foot. However, they are generally considered a medium width. For very wide feet, they might feel snug.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. The canvas material and construction are best maintained with spot cleaning to preserve their shape and integrity.
What does 'Earthwise' mean in the product description?
'Earthwise' signifies that the product utilizes environmentally conscious materials and processes, such as recycled or bio-based content.
How much cushioning do the CloudBound insoles offer?
The CloudBound insoles are designed to provide all-day comfort and support with ample cushioning, utilizing 30% eco content.
Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activity. They are not intended for high-impact sports or rigorous athletic training due to their construction and sole type.
What is the sole height of the trainers?
The injected TPR outsole has a height of approximately 13mm.
What is the warranty period for TOMS shoes?
TOMS typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the official TOMS website or the product packaging for specific warranty details, as these can vary.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable initially.
The canvas material will stretch slightly with wear. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in. Ensure you have selected the correct size based on TOMS sizing guidelines.
Soles feel slippery.
The TPR outsole provides moderate grip. If slipping is an issue on specific surfaces, consider adding a grip-enhancing sole protector or using them only in dry conditions.
Canvas appears dirty or stained.
Spot clean using a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For stubborn stains, use a specialized canvas cleaner. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Foot odor develops.
Allow shoes to air out completely between wears. Use antiperspirant spray or powder inside the shoes. Consider wearing thin socks made of moisture-wicking material.
