The shoe
What is a sock shoe?
A sock with a sole. A stretchy knit upper you pull on like a sock, a thin rubber sole underneath, and on these, a water-resistant membrane in between.
Are they waterproof?
No. They're water-resistant. Splashes, rain and wet grass stay out. Water can come in over the top of the cuff, so for real puddle jumping, put rain pants over the cuff. Or wear rain boots that day. I won't be offended.
What are they made of?
Nylon outside, cotton inside, and a PU membrane between them. There's no chemical water-repellent coating on the outside, so after rain the outside can look wet while the inside stays dry.
They feel tight going on. Wrong size?
Probably not. The cuff is tall, so pushing a foot straight down from the top feels tight. Roll the top down, toes in first, pull the heel back while they push, then roll the cuff up. Once they're on, they fit like a sock. More on sizing
How do I pick a size?
Measure heel to longest toe in centimeters and go by that, not the age. Between two sizes, take the bigger one. Size chart
Do they need socks?
With or without. Your call. A sock helps on cold days.
Can I wear them when it isn't raining?
Yes. They're everyday shoes. Rain is just where they earn their keep.
How do I wash them?
Machine wash on cold, then air dry. If they get soaked, stuff them with a towel or newspaper and dry them upside down somewhere ventilated. No dryer, no direct heat. Heat is what ruins the membrane. A second pair helps on wet weeks.
Orders
How fast does it ship?
Orders ship from Oregon in 1–2 business days. US delivery usually takes 5–8 business days after that.
How much is shipping?
Two pairs or more ship free in the US. One pair pays the standard rate at checkout. International orders pay carrier rates.
Do you ship outside the US?
Yes, to most countries. You pay any duties and taxes when it arrives, and return shipping is on you, so check the size chart first.
What if they don't fit?
There's a 30-day fit guarantee. Email me and I'll swap the size. Shipping, returns and exchanges
Are they in stores?
No. Online only, on purpose for now, so if something's wrong I can fix it directly.
Ready for the next wet walk?
2 pairs ship free. 3 pairs are $59.97. Mix sizes and colors however you want.
