FAQs

What type of activities are these shoes best for?

These shoes are best suited for casual wear, walking, and light fitness activities. They are not designed for high-impact sports like running or cross-training.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should not slip excessively when walking.

Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?

While the materials offer some protection, they are not waterproof. They can handle light moisture, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Traction may be reduced on very wet surfaces.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of textile and leather for a balance of breathability and durability.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The shoes feature a regular fit. If you have significantly wide feet, they might feel snug. It's recommended to try them on if possible.

How should I clean the leather parts?

Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be applied sparingly, followed by buffing.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and adjust the fit. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate for your foot.

Traction is poor on wet surfaces

Wipe the outsole clean of debris. Be cautious when walking on wet surfaces as synthetic outsoles can be less effective than specialized grip patterns.

Material scuffing easily

Clean scuffs gently with a damp cloth. For leather parts, a leather cleaner might be effective. Consider using protective sprays if this is a frequent concern.
