FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
The Wally Braided shoes are designed for casual wear and prioritize comfort and breathability. They may not offer the necessary support or durability for rigorous athletic activities like running or high-impact sports.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by the manufacturer. These shoes tend to run true to size for many users, but the flexible nature means some people opt for a half-size up or down depending on personal preference for fit.
Can the laces be replaced?
Yes, the woven cotton laces can be replaced if they become worn or damaged. You can thread new laces through the eyelets following the original pattern.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the textile and cotton materials are not waterproof. They are breathable and suitable for dry conditions. They will absorb water if exposed to rain or significant moisture.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. The textile upper and foam insole are best cleaned by hand with a damp cloth and mild soap. Machine washing can damage the materials and structure.
How do the braided details affect comfort?
The woven braided laces are part of the design and contribute to the shoe's easy-on system. They are generally comfortable and do not cause irritation, offering a secure yet relaxed fit.
What is the primary benefit of the removable insole?
The removable foam insole provides cushioning and can be taken out for easier cleaning of the shoe's interior or to accommodate custom orthotics for personalized support.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially.
The textile upper is designed to stretch and conform to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially, and they should loosen up. Ensure you have selected the correct size.
Insole smells after prolonged use.
Remove the foam insole and wash it separately with cool water and mild soap. Allow it to air dry completely before placing it back in the shoe. Consider using odor-absorbing insoles or sprays.
Textile upper appears discolored or stained.
Gently spot clean the affected area with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Rinse the cloth and wipe away any soap residue. Allow to air dry.
Reduced cushioning after extended wear.
The removable foam insole may wear down over time. Consider replacing the insole with a new one for renewed cushioning. You can also purchase aftermarket insoles.
