• Product information

  + + + Please note: The sizes Kids 7-Kids 10 do not have a fan made of sisal fiber. + + +

  ONU's all-over print bears the unmistakable signature of our collaboration partner Nkwo Onwuka. Inspired by the Dakala Cloth she developed, we collaborated with her to design this limited edition minimal shoe. 

  Starting at size “Kids 11“, Onu has a special design element: a fan made of 100% biodegradable sisal fiber from eastern Nigeria, which was processed by the initiative "NKWO Transform Women" and underlines our joint approach of taking regenerative action.

  Please Note: The sisal fibers may look different on each shoe. Due to their natural structure, they give each shoe its individual appearance.

• Care

  Waterproofing before first-time wear

  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. There is no need to apply waterproofing treatment to the entire shoe right out of the box.

  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 and carefully brushing them out when they’re dry, or by gently wiping them down with a damp cloth. Not machine washable. The upper may rub off onto light-colored fabrics when wet.

  If necessary, the natural bristles of this model can be brought back into shape by careful brushing and can be gently cleaned with water, preferably with a few drops of Tapir cleaning solution.

  Post-treatment

  We recommend follow-up waterproofing treatments with a suitable product if necessary.

  Allow shoes to dry thoroughly after waterproofing. The upper may rub off onto light-colored fabrics when wet.

  Video tutorials explaining how to care for your shoes are available on the Wildling Shoes YouTube channel.

• 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.

  The upper may rub off onto light-colored fabrics when wet.

  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.
