FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Alpargata features an elastic gore for a flexible fit, but they are designed with a standard width. If you typically require wide-fit shoes, these may feel snug.
Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash the TOMS Alpargata as it can damage the materials and construction. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.
What is the main benefit of the CloudBound foam insoles?
The CloudBound foam insoles provide enhanced cushioning and support, designed for all-day comfort during regular wear.
How durable is the TPR outsole?
The injected TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) outsole is designed for durability and provides good traction for everyday use on various surfaces.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Heritage Canvas upper is not waterproof. These shoes are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions.
What does 'Alpargata' refer to?
Alpargata is a traditional style of espadrille footwear originating from Argentina and Uruguay, known for its simple, flat design.
What is the benefit of the elastic gore?
The elastic gore allows for an easy slip-on fit and provides flexibility, helping the shoe conform comfortably to the wearer's foot.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
The Heritage Canvas may need a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially, and the elastic gore will help them stretch slightly to a more comfortable fit.
Canvas shows dirt or scuff marks
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, a specialized canvas shoe cleaner can be used. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Insoles feel less cushioned over time
The CloudBound foam insoles are designed for longevity, but if cushioning diminishes, consider using separate supportive insoles designed for casual shoes. The original insoles are typically not removable for washing.

Care:
