FAQs
Are these suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the anatomical cork footbed is specifically designed for long-term comfort and support.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Suede can be damaged by water, so it is best to avoid wearing them in wet conditions.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
Your heel should rest comfortably in the deep heel cup, and your toes should have enough room to move freely at the front.
Is the material real suede?
Yes, the product is crafted from high-quality genuine suede leather.
How should I clean the cork footbed?
Wipe the footbed with a slightly damp cloth to remove perspiration and dirt. Ensure it is allowed to air dry away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels too stiff initially
This is normal for new cork footbeds. Wear them for short durations to allow the cork to mold to your foot shape.
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface debris.
Buckle feels loose
Adjust the metal pin through the strap holes to tighten the overall fit of the clog across the instep.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your clogs last, follow these guidelines for maintenance:
- Initial Fit: Use the adjustable metal buckle to secure the upper. It should be snug enough to prevent slipping, but loose enough to allow natural toe movement.
- Break-in Period: You may notice the cork footbed feels rigid initially. Wear them for short intervals until the cork adapts to your footprint.
- Cleaning: Gently brush the suede surface with a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt. Avoid submerging in water.
- Storage: Keep your clogs in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the cork to dry out or crack.
