Frequently Asked Questions
Product/Fit
-
Do Pontos run true to size?
We designed our shoes to fit true-to-size without socks. If your size varies between brands, you have wider feet, or if you want to wear socks, we recommend ordering up a 1/2 size from your most normal athletic shoe size.
-
Do they Stretch?
They sure do (a little bit)! Our recycled leather is REAL leather, so it stretches and breaks in like real leather.
-
Are the insoles removable?
Yep! The insoles are fully removable so you can pop your own inserts in there if you would like.
-
How do you wash the shoes? The insoles?
The recycled leather is certified water repellent and highly durable
- For small spots and dirt, clean with water and rub with a rag/sponge
- In the case they get wet, it’s still best to dry with a cloth
- In the case you feel the need to condition the leather at some point, we recommend using Leather Honey.
- The insoles are removable and can be washed with soap and water.
-
Are your shoes zero drop?
Our shoes are not zero drop - there is about 10mm of lift between the heel and the toe.
