Tejo caramel | Wildling Shoes | minimal shoes | sustainable

For those who also insist on Wildling Shoes in wet and windy weather, the Tejo model is just the ticket. Its extra-densely woven recycled cotton upper material and integrated membrane keep our feet dry for the long-term.

Wooly warmth is guaranteed by the loden lining with virgin wool from our partner company, Nordwolle. The shoestring eyelets make tying the shoes especially easy, and the cotton tongue and heel come in a distinct eye-catching color.

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 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.

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.

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.

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