SHEEPSKIN SLIPPERS AND BOOTS
Fitting
Mens sizing is used (women should go down 1 to 2 sizes) A SNUG BAREFOOT FIT is best as the fur will pack down inside & they will stretch UP TO A FULL SIZE.
Just wear bare foot when they are new and again after washing . They will quickly stretch back out !
Washing Machine wash on regular cycle in warm or cold water. For cushioning add dark colored towels or clothes (as they will lose some color).
Or wash by hand.
For taller beaded styles- pin tassles to inside of shoe to protect them from breaking .
A little Ivory soap, Eucalan Wool Wash or a gentle PH balance shampoo is recommended.
* DO NOT USE WOOLITE OR A DETERGENT SUCH AS TIDE *
Rinse well. Air dry out of direct sunlight . You may dry partially with air fluff setting on your dryer to speed up drying time. A water proofing silicone based spray may be applied (heavily around bottom of shoes) to give them some water resistance .
When in snow country - brush off salt accumulated from the roads and rinse or wash after your trip
.

ORTHOTIC SPORT SANDALS
Our sandals are made to be worn in any weather, rivers or the sea !
Fitting Mens sizing is used (women should go down 2 to 3 sizes)
The top velcro straps will stretch about 1/2” and are sewn with an extra row of stitching
so that they may be trimed down when needed.
Washing We recommend washing when new to bleed out excess dye (see sheepskin washing instructions above).
Please WASH or RINSE well in fresh water ASAP after ocean use (salt is drying & hard on leather)
SANDAL MAINTANENCE
Shoe dyes and leather conditioners
may be applied to revitalize faded or stained sandals and
to put back the natural moisture when the leather gets dried out.
Velcro replacement
must be done periodically . *WE MUST REPLACE THE VELCRO*
It is a special military strength velcro and shoe repair shops don’t have it !
Sole replacement may be conveniently done at your local shoe repair or sent to us.
