FAQs
How do the Soft Footbed and Regular Footbed differ?
The Soft Footbed includes an extra layer of latex foam between the cork and the suede lining, providing more cushion and shock absorption right out of the box.
Are these sandals waterproof?
No, the suede upper and cork-latex footbed should not be submerged in water. Moisture can damage the integrity of the materials.
How should I clean the suede upper?
Use a specialized suede brush or eraser. Avoid using water or harsh soap, which can leave permanent marks on the suede.
Can I replace the insoles?
The footbed is permanently bonded to the midsole and is not designed to be replaced by the user.
Do I need to break these in?
While the Soft Footbed makes them comfortable immediately, the cork-latex midsole will still take a few days of consistent wear to fully contour to your unique foot shape.
How do I know if I have the right size?
There should be a small gap between your toes and the front rim, and your heel should be centered firmly in the heel cup.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels stiff after initial wear
The cork-latex footbed is designed to mold to your foot shape through heat and pressure; continue wearing them for short periods to accelerate the break-in process.
Buckles are digging into the skin
Adjust the strap tension. Often, the straps may be tightened too much; ensure there is enough room to slide one finger comfortably under the strap.
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a soft suede brush to gently groom the nap of the leather in one direction to restore its original texture.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Highly adjustable design fits most foot shapes
- Durable cork-latex midsole construction

Cons
- Suede material is sensitive to water and liquids
- Requires a break-in period for the cork to fully adapt
- Lacks the water-resistance of synthetic models
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the perfect fit, start by unbuckling both straps and placing your foot on the footbed. Your heels should sit deep in the heel cup, and your toes should not touch the front edge when walking. Tighten the straps so they hold the foot securely without cutting off circulation.
For care, avoid prolonged exposure to water, as moisture can damage the cork and cause the suede to stiffen or stain. If the suede becomes dirty, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dust. Store your sandals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can dry out the leather and weaken the cork over time.
