You must use Tabi-style socks, which have a separate compartment for the big toe, to accommodate the split design.
The Tabi Ballerinas generally fit true to size, but the leather will stretch and mold to your foot shape after a few wears.
It is recommended to avoid wearing these in heavy rain, as the leather material is susceptible to water damage.
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, preferably in a dust bag with shoe trees to preserve their shape.
The flat soles provide standard traction, but be cautious on slick or wet surfaces as they are not specifically designed for high-grip performance.
Ensure you are using the correct Tabi-style socks to guide each toe into the split compartment smoothly.
Use a high-quality leather conditioner or neutral polish specifically formulated for soft leather to restore its natural finish.
To ensure the longevity of your Tabi Ballerinas, keep the leather clean by wiping them with a soft, dry cloth after each use. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or extreme heat to prevent material degradation. When storing, use shoe trees or stuffing to maintain the shape of the toe and upper. Note that due to the split-toe design, standard socks are not compatible; you will need to utilize Tabi-specific hosiery or go sockless in warmer conditions.
