Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Linen can sometimes be stiff initially. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet. If they remain uncomfortably tight, consider if a larger size is needed.
Discoloration on linen
Avoid exposure to excessive moisture and direct sunlight for prolonged periods. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
Traction feels reduced
Ensure the Waffle outsole is free from debris such as mud or stones. A quick wipe with a damp cloth may restore grip.
