Arni

Arni is particularly water-repellent, abrasion-resistant and robust. The gray-blue upper is made of 100% recycled cotton in a denim look.
Its exceptionally tight weave, along with a membrane construction and a water flap, ensures its high moisture resistance.

The all-over print on the inner fabric of the unlined shoe features the Wildling Shoes logo.
The inner fabric is made of Single Source Cotton from Cotonea, i.e. cotton sourced from a single supplier, which helps to ensure high quality.

Upper:
Twill (100% recycled cotton) – charcoal gray

Membrane:
100% polyester containing 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 containing approx. 33% recycled material, 25% silica, 15% recycled cork – charcoal gray

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.

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.

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

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.

When using ride-on toys, we recommend additional protection against scuffing.
