Product Info
Can I replace my insole?

You sure can replace the insole if needed! Our comfy inFoam™ is removable and made from natural materials like castor bean oil and anti-bacterial fabric. But heads up – our inFoam™ is specially designed to provide that signature THEESE cloud-like cushioning magic. If you swap them out, you might miss out on some of that oh-so-soft inFoam™ experience!

Do your shoes breathe? (ie. have air flow)

Yes, our shoes breathe! They keep water, wind, and sand out, but let sweat vapors escape through a special moisture-wicking membrane. It absorbs moisture inside and releases it outside, keeping your feet dry and comfortable. You can think of it like a one-way valve: water stay out, while sweat vapors escape.

How do I clean my shoes?

To keep your knit shoes looking their best:

1. Use a lint roller to remove any dust
2. Clean gently with shoe cleaner and cool water. Use a soft brush for best results, especially with our knit shoes
3. Let them air dry
4. Regularly wipe them down to keep them fresh

With a bit of care, your shoes will stay stylish and ready for anything!

How do THEESE waterproof technology work?

THEESE.DRY is our proprietary technology that fully fuses a waterproof membrane to a completed outer shoe after all stitching, maintaining its waterproof integrity and complete water-tightness.

Other waterproof shoes (e.g. Goretex and others) stitch their shoes after applying their waterproof layer. This damages the membrane and creates holes. Seam and water tape is then used to seal and repair the damage. Overtime, the tape can peel and shift, causing the holes to be exposed and water to leak. THEESE.DRY guarantees long-lasting waterproof performance, outlasting traditional methods.

Is the shoe non-slip?

THEESE are outfitted with rubber outsoles to keep you on your toes! While not officially non-slip rated, our quality rubber soles have plenty of traction to keep you stepping lively in all kinds of weather. A little rain or snow won’t slow down your strut when you’re rocking THEESE!

No slippery spills on our watch. Just cloud-like comfort and flexible rubber outsoles to keep you moving and grooving wherever you are!

What is the difference between water-resistant and waterproof?

Water-resistant or water resistance means a fabric can withstand light moisture for a short time before it starts to seep through. Waterproof means totally impervious to liquid – no water is getting through no matter what! THEESE are fully waterproof thanks to our magical sorcery…err…we mean ingenious waterproofing techniques. So feel free to stomp through those puddles without a care! Your feet will stay dry as can be.

Size Guide
What is the difference between Men and Women sizes?

Some men’s and women’s sizing options (e.g., M7/W8) have the same length measurements. The only difference is that women’s widths are crafted approximately 2 mm narrower.

Those with particularly narrow or wide feet may want to explore sizing options in the opposite sex category for the best fit. For example:

  • Women with wide feet wearing Women' Size 9 can consider a Men's Size 8.
  • Men with narrow feet wearing Men's Size 9, can consider a Women's Size 10.
