FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the natural materials, especially the rope midsole and recycled cotton upper.
What is the main difference between the Alpargata Rope 2.0 and other Alpargata models?
The Alpargata Rope 2.0 features a more prominent natural rope midsole and often utilizes recycled materials in its construction, aligning with TOMS' earthwise™ collection.
How durable is the rope midsole?
The natural rope midsole is designed for aesthetic appeal and moderate wear. It is durable for casual use but should be protected from excessive moisture and abrasion to maintain its appearance and integrity.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the TOMS Alpargata Rope 2.0 features a removable OrthoLite® Eco LT-Hybrid™ insole, allowing for cleaning or replacement with custom orthotics.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, these shoes are not waterproof. They are made from natural and recycled cotton materials, which can be damaged by prolonged exposure to water.
What does 'earthwise™ collection' mean?
The earthwise™ collection signifies that the product is designed with respect for the planet, utilizing sustainable materials such as recycled cotton and eco-friendly components.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
The natural rope midsole and recycled cotton upper may require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. The removable insole can also be replaced with a cushioned insert if desired.
Slight discoloration or marks on the rope midsole.
Natural rope can be sensitive. Wipe gently with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or prolonged exposure to moisture.
Foot odor after wear.
Remove the insoles and air them out separately. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
The rubber outsole provides traction, but like all footwear, grip can vary on polished or wet surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris.
