• Product information

  Regeneration
  Wildling minimal shoes can help our bodies recover and regenerate. Rewilding Europe is committed to regenerating a number of European landscape regions. Together, we want to reactivate what is natural and create space for resilience*.

  Worth a thousand words
  Different aspects of the joint renaturation project run by Wildling Shoes and Rewilding Europe* are reflected in the symbols used in the all-over print and speak of our shared mission of regeneration.

  Dense textiles
  This mid cut features fabrics that have an exceptionally dense weave, making it water-repellent. With proper care, Zora will keep feet dry even in soggy weather.

  * Wildling x Rewilding Europe
  From 2020 to 2022, Wildling Shoes supported the work of Rewilding Europe, among other things, through its membership in the non-profit organization "1% for the Planet", which connects companies with high-impact non-profit partners. As Wildling Shoes is affected by the current global economic situation in various ways, we unfortunately have to stop direct financial support at the end of 2022 – but Wildling Shoes and Rewilding Europe will remain connected, both ideologically and in practice.

  Please note:
  Colors appear different depending on the lighting conditions. Because of this, Zora's color can appear warmer on a sunny autumn day and cooler on a gray winter morning.

• 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 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.

  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.

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