FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Taekwondo Mei is designed as a fashion-focused flat and does not provide the cushioning or impact support required for running.
Does the shoe run true to size?
The fit is generally standard for adult sizing, but due to the slim nature of the ballet-style cut, those with wider feet may prefer a slightly larger size.
Can I wear these without socks?
You can, but wearing a thin, moisture-wicking invisible liner is recommended to protect the interior lining and maintain hygiene.
How do I best clean the white leather?
Use a soft cloth with a mixture of mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the leather finish.
Is the sole flexible?
Yes, the gum rubber sole is designed to be highly flexible, mimicking the movement of a traditional martial arts flat.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty keeping the laces tied
Ensure you are using a double knot or a secure bow, as the soft laces may loosen with movement.
Creasing on the leather upper
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the leather retain its natural shape.
Outer sole looks dull
Clean the gum sole with a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush to restore its original traction and appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the shoe is crafted from leather, it is important to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or moisture. To keep your pair in prime condition, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and use a dedicated leather cleaner for deeper scuffs. Since these are slip-on inspired, ensure the tie-up laces are adjusted to your preferred tension before walking to prevent heel slippage. For best compatibility, wear them with low-profile invisible socks to maintain the intended silhouette.
