6 reasons why you should have leather sandals in your wardrobe

Over the years, we've all seen different shoe trends: arty clogs, boat shoes, espadrilles, loafers, ballerinas, summer camp sandals, classic flip flops. Some of them we still love, some have made us roll our eyes. There is one piece of footwear that has withstood the test of time - leather sandals. Comfortable, classic, exquisite!

Here are 6 reasons, why you should have a pair of leather sandals in your wardrobe:

1. versatility

You can wear flat leather sandals both at home and outside. At home, flat leather sandals protect your feet and keep them warm; outdoors, they give your feet comfort and allow them to breathe. They offer the casual summer comfort of a sandal and the elegant look of leather. Relax all day long, dress up for dinner. All in a single sandal.

2. luxurious and stylish

Who says you have to sacrifice style for comfort? Discover our timeless designs that don't compromise on the well-being of your feet. Leather sandals can be worn with a variety of outfits. OWhether beachwear with shorts, sarongs or kimonos, jeans or elegant casual dresses, leather sandals will make you look stylish no matter what.

3. environmentally friendly

In today's world, the emphasis in manufacturing and design is on choosing environmentally friendly materials. Leather is a natural material. Synthetic materials, on the other hand, pollute the environment with harmful gases that are released during the production process.

4. breathable and easy on the joints

Leather sandals are breathable and keep your feet cool and dry. Our leather sandals also mould to the shape of the wearer's feet. The more you wear them, the more the material moulds to the shape of your feet. The cork midsole incorporated into our models also provides excellent cushioning. This will give you the feeling that you are not only protecting your feet, but also your knees and back!

5. comfortable and durable

Leather sandals are extremely comfortable to wear. They relieve the pain of foot problems such as blisters, calluses, corns, etc. The cinnamon incorporated into the footbed of our sandals also has a temperature balancing effect and reduces foot perspiration and unpleasant foot odour. Leather sandals are also more durable and last longer than sandals made from synthetic materials.

6. easy to clean

Leather sandals are easy to clean and maintain, more so than other types of footwear. The material is also less likely to harbour bacteria. You can polish out scratches or stains. Water stains can be removed with a little vinegar and water. More stubborn stains can be removed with washing-up liquid or liquid hand soap. Do not use soap as it dries out the leather. A leather care product can be used for larger stains.

Make sure that the sandals do not come into direct contact with water. Also avoid placing them directly in the sun to prevent cracks.

Leather sandals fit well on the foot

Natural movement of the feet is essential for foot health. Our original leather sandals encourage natural movement for better muscle engagement and balanced weight distribution for a more comfortable and healthier walking experience.Don't let your toes hang over the edge of the sandal, and don't force yourself into a sandal that is too tight for fear of falling out when walking down the street.

The right size is important

Sandals can be a fantastic way to give your feet a change from their usual footwear. They make walking through the airport easier and make for a successful appearance at the beach or at a pool party. They are a very versatile accessory, but they don't offer any protection for your feet if they don't fit properly. Don't let your toes hang over the edge of the sandal, and don't force yourself into a sandal that is too tight for fear of falling out when walking down the street.

Choosing the right size can make a big difference. Read our blog articles on the right size or take a look at our size chart so you know which size fits you best.

❍ Dirt-free is the way to go. Your sandals will accompany you on your daily adventures, so you need to regularly wipe off the dust and dirt that accumulates with a soft, dry cloth. If this is not enough to remove the dirt, you can buy a leather cleaner or conditioner.

❍ Like oil and water, water and leather do not mix well. To avoid damaging your sandals, it is best to choose different footwear for activities in the water. If your sandals get wet, put them aside and allow them to dry thoroughly before wearing them again. Important! As our leather sandals have a layer of cinnamon between the footbed and the sole, they should not come into contact with water, as water could wash away the cinnamon.

❍ Normal leather sandals sometimes have odours from use or contact with water. To alleviate this, sprinkle the inner sole with a little baking soda and leave it on overnight. Shake it off in the morning and remove any excess with a soft cloth. You won't have this problem with our cinnamon leather sandals, as the cinnamon prevents unpleasant odours!
