FAQs

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is made from pony hair, designed to mimic a cowhide pattern for a unique aesthetic.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The product description notes a wide fit. Customers with wider feet might consider sizing up by half a size for optimal comfort.

How do I put these shoes on?

These are slip-on shoes featuring elastic side panels, designed for easy on and off without laces.

What kind of insole do they have?

They feature a cushioning foam insole, specifically Sola Foam Adc, for added comfort.

How should I clean the pony hair?

Gently brush off loose dirt. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap and wipe clean with a dry cloth. Avoid soaking the material.

What is the outsole made of?

The outsole is made of durable waffle rubber, providing reliable grip.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The product information does not indicate that these shoes are waterproof. The materials used may be susceptible to water damage.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or narrow

Due to the wide fit noted in the product description, consider trying a half-size larger, or wear with thinner socks initially to allow for slight stretching.

Pony hair material is getting dirty

Use a soft brush to gently remove loose dirt. For tougher marks, use a lightly dampened cloth and mild soap, then wipe clean with a dry cloth. Avoid soaking the material.

Soles are losing grip

Ensure the waffle pattern on the rubber outsole is clear of debris. Clean the soles with a damp cloth to restore traction.
