FAQs
Are these mules genuinely waterproof?
Yes, the Regatta Risley Mules are designed with waterproof properties to keep your feet dry in various weather conditions, from damp patios to light rain.
Can I wear them for extended periods outdoors?
They are suitable for light outdoor use such as short walks, gardening, or casual wear due to their grippy outsole. However, they are not intended for strenuous activities, hiking, or prolonged exposure to very rough terrains.
How do I maintain the faux fur lining?
The faux fur lining should be spot cleaned only. Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap, dab gently, and then wipe with a clean damp cloth. Allow it to air dry completely. Avoid submerging or machine washing.
What is TECFOAM?
TECFOAM refers to the open foam insock (insole) designed to provide superior cushioning and comfort underfoot, absorbing impact with each step.
Will these mules provide good traction on wet surfaces?
Yes, the PVC outsole is equipped with angled lugs specifically designed to offer excellent grip and stability on a variety of surfaces, including those that are damp.
Are these mules suitable for all seasons?
Given the warm faux fur lining, they are best suited for cooler temperatures, such as autumn and winter. While waterproof, they might be too warm for hot summer days.
Troubleshooting
Feet still feel cold in cooler temperatures.
Ensure the mules are sized correctly and not too loose, which can allow cold air in. Try wearing a thicker pair of socks for added insulation. The faux fur provides warmth, but extreme cold may require additional layering.
Mules feel loose or tend to slip off.
Verify you have the correct size. Mules by design are not as snug as full shoes; if they feel excessively loose, consider if a smaller size might be more appropriate, or try wearing thicker socks to improve the fit.
Slipping on certain outdoor surfaces.
While the PVC outsole offers excellent grip, regularly check the soles for accumulated dirt or debris that might reduce traction. Clean the angled lugs thoroughly. Avoid extremely slippery surfaces like thick ice or very oily spills, as no footwear can guarantee 100% slip prevention in such conditions.
Unpleasant odor develops over time.
Allow the mules to air out completely after each wear, especially if your feet tend to sweat. You can sprinkle baking soda inside, leave it overnight, and then shake it out. For persistent odors, a fabric refresher spray designed for footwear can be used on the faux fur lining.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your Regatta Risley Mules:
- Cleaning the Upper and Outsole: For the polyester upper and PVC outsole, gently wipe them down with a damp cloth. Use a mild soap solution for tougher stains, then wipe clean with plain water and allow to air dry completely.
- Cleaning the Faux Fur Lining: The faux fur lining should be spot cleaned only. Use a small amount of mild detergent on a damp cloth to gently dab any soiled areas. Avoid saturating the lining. Allow it to air dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat.
- Drying: Never machine wash or tumble dry your mules. Always air dry them naturally. Stuffing them lightly with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
