Rich brown suede sets the tone, layered with smooth brown leather accents and a taupe coloured leather tongue for gentle contrast. These premium barefoot sneakers are warm, versatile, and easy to wear, designed as everyday barefoot shoes that feel natural across moments, settings, and seasons.

Care

Leather shoe care

Leather is best maintained with gentle, regular care. Wipe the surface with a soft dry cloth or a slightly damp cloth to remove dust and light marks. For tougher spots, use a quality leather cleaner and finish with a leather conditioner to keep the leather soft. Clean gently and avoid scrubbing too hard.

Suede and nubuck shoe care

Suede and nubuck need a softer approach to protect the texture. Use a suede brush or a clean towel to remove surface dirt, brushing in the same direction as the material. For small scuffs, use a suede rubber or a clean pencil eraser and work gently over the area. If stains remain, apply a high quality waterless foam cleaner to a cloth and clean carefully using small movements, then let the shoes dry naturally at room temperature.

Avoid direct heat, heaters, hairdryers, and direct sunlight.

Things You May Be Wondering
