Product Information:
Arni is a barefoot shoe designed for wet conditions. It is water-repellent, abrasion-resistant, and robust. The upper is made of 100% recycled cotton in a denim look, with a tight weave, membrane construction, and water flap for high moisture resistance. The inner fabric features the Wildling Shoes logo and is made of Single Source Cotton for high quality.
Material:
- Upper: Twill (100% recycled cotton) - charcoal gray
- Membrane: 100% polyester (approx. 75% recycled material)
- Interior lining / mid-sole: 100% certified organically grown cotton
- Insole: Hemp-flax fleece (50% hemp, 50% flax)
- Edging: Microfiber (100% polyamide) - charcoal gray
- Outsole: 60% synthetic rubber (approx. 33% recycled material), 25% silica, 15% recycled cork - charcoal gray
Fit:
Arni is true to size, as measured with the Fitkit. It runs a little wider and provides ample room at the forefoot. For narrow feet, an insole is recommended.
Care:
Before first-time wear, it is recommended to waterproof the edging again. This may cause the edging to darken slightly. Waterproofing treatment is not needed for the entire shoe, as it has already been taken care of during production. Cleaning can be done by knocking the shoes together when dry, brushing them carefully if needed, or wiping them with a damp cloth. The shoes are not machine washable. Periodic follow-up waterproofing treatments are recommended, and care tutorials can be found on the Wildling Shoes YouTube channel.
Additional Notes:
Each shoe is handmade and may exhibit minor irregularities. Colors may appear different depending on lighting conditions. When putting on the shoes, it is advised to widen the opening by loosening the laces to minimize wear and extend the shoe's lifespan.
