Product information
A different kind of colorful mix
Medlar’s upper boasts an elegant herringbone pattern made from two types of wool: undyed wool from German regional mixed wool sheep breeds in a natural heathered brown combined with light-colored wool that has been dyed naturally using dye plants.
Nordwolle inside and out
The virgin wool used for the upper and the lining comes from our long-standing partner Nordwolle and is sourced from landscape conservation projects.
Snugly warm
Enveloped in wool from all sides, this mid cut makes sure not a single toe is left out in the cold. But at the same time, no one has to fret about sweaty feet – three cheers for the temperature-regulating properties of wool!
Material
Upper:
Herringbone (100% virgin wool) – brown-green
Membrane:
100% polyester
Lining / mid-sole:
Felted wool loden (100% virgin wool)
Edging:
Microfiber (100% polyamide) – brown
Outsole:
60% synthetic rubber containing approx. 33% recycled material, 25% silica, 15% recycled cork – honey
Fit
True to size as measured with the
Fitkit
. Runs a little wider and provides ample room at the forefoot. For narrow feet, we recommend an insole.
Care
Waterproofing before first-time wear
There is no need to apply waterproofing treatment to the entire shoe right out of the box – that has already been taken care of during production (and in this case, doubling up won’t make it last longer). Before first-time wear, we do recommend that you waterproof the edging again. This may cause the edging to darken slightly, so don’t be surprised.
Tip: Using a brush is the best way to apply the waterproofing product. If you choose to spray it on, be sure to cover the rest of the shoe. Repeat the waterproofing treatment as needed.
Cleaning
The best way to clean soiled shoes is by knocking them together when they are dry, brushing them carefully as needed when dry, or by wiping them carefully with a damp cloth. Not machine washable.
Post-treatment
We recommend periodic follow-up waterproofing treatments with a suitable product.

Additional notes
Every single shoe is a handmade one of a kind, with an upper made from natural material. The structure and coloration may exhibit minor irregularities.
A hue appears different depending on the lighting conditions. That's why colors always look a little different on the screen, in artificial light at home, or outside in sunlight.
When putting on, please note: Widen the opening of the shoe sufficiently by loosening the laces. This minimizes wear on the material and extends the life of the shoe.
