Care instructions: We recommend a damp cloth and a neutral soap for hard stains
More specific: Lightly wipe down dust and dirt with a dry cloth. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the entire shoe in circular motion until clean. Regularly clean the cloth to avoid spreading the removed dirty into the shoe. For particularly difficult stains use a soft-bristle brush with water in circular motions. Laminated cork is very sensitive ‒ be gentle. Let the shoes air dry before applying polish cream. The application of polishing cream is recommended. Apply a small amount using a dry, soft cloth and rub sparingly over the textile in a circular motion. After the application, leave to dry naturally for 24 hours.

It is Cork time!
We have a cork line since 2009 because we know how great this natural textile can be and how beautiful fits in shoes.
We only work with cork produced in protected reserves and we love this material because it is waterproof, smooth elegant, soft and it is never out of fashion.
Cork is incredibly durable and great for the environment. It is harvested from cork oak (or quercus suber) trees and is 100% sustainable. Cork farming actually has a negative carbon footprint, meaning that using it in our products has an incredibly positive impact on the planet. It’s waterproof, hypoallergenic and soft to the touch, making it virtually perfect.
