FAQs
Are TOMS Alpargatas machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Hand-cleaning with mild soap and water is the safest way to maintain their structure and material quality.
Do these shoes provide good arch support?
The Alpargata features a flat, cushioned footbed. While comfortable for casual wear, they do not offer specialized medical-grade arch support.
Are these shoes vegan?
Yes, the TOMS Alpargata is constructed with vegan-friendly materials, including cotton and recycled foam, without any animal-derived components.
How do I choose the correct size?
These shoes generally run true to size. If you are between sizes, it is often recommended to opt for the slightly larger size to account for the snug fit of the elastic.
What is the benefit of the 'Earthwise' collection?
The Earthwise collection uses sustainable materials and processes to minimize environmental impact compared to traditional manufacturing.
Troubleshooting
Elastic panel feeling too tight
Wear the shoes for short periods around the house to allow the elastic to naturally relax and conform to your foot shape.
Canvas becoming dusty or dull
Use a soft, dry cloth or a dedicated fabric brush to gently remove surface debris and restore the matte appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box with no break-in period required due to the soft canvas upper and flexible elastic panel. To ensure longevity, avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean with a soft brush and mild soap to maintain the integrity of the canvas. Keep the shoes away from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent the black pigment from fading over time. If they become damp, allow them to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources.
