FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Elliotte Sail is typically designed as a standard fit. If you have wider feet, it's recommended to try them on or consult customer reviews for fit feedback. Some variants might offer wider fittings.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the TPR sole offers some protection, the leather or nubuck upper is not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to treat them with a waterproofing spray suitable for the material.
How often should I condition the leather?
If your shoes are leather, conditioning them every 3-6 months, or more often if they are frequently exposed to harsh conditions, will help maintain their suppleness and prevent cracking.
What is the main benefit of the Ultimate Comfort foam footbed?
The Ultimate Comfort foam footbed is designed to provide enhanced cushioning and support, making the shoes ideal for extended wear and reducing foot fatigue throughout the day.
How do I clean the textile sock and lining?
For the interior, spot clean any marks with a damp cloth and a very mild soap solution. Allow the shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat sources.
What does 'TPR sole' mean?
TPR stands for Thermoplastic Rubber. It's a material used for shoe soles that offers a good balance of flexibility, durability, and grip, making the shoe comfortable and stable.
Can I put these shoes in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended for these shoes as it can damage the leather/nubuck upper, the sole, and the internal cushioning.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow the leather to mold to your foot. Ensure you have selected the correct size.
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or around the sole edges. Ensure no parts of the sole are rubbing against each other.
Scuffs on the leather/nubuck
For leather, use a matching color shoe polish to cover minor scuffs. For nubuck, try a suede eraser or a suede brush.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
While the TPR sole offers good traction, very smooth or wet surfaces can be challenging. Ensure the sole is clean. For increased grip, consider a professional shoe repairer to add a thin rubber sole protector.
