FAQs
What is the sizing for this model?
This specific variant is available in UK size 3.5.
Are these shoes comfortable for long walks?
They are designed for style and moderate daily activity; the leather sole is less cushioned than performance sneakers.
What material are the shoes made of?
The exterior and sole are crafted from premium leather.
Do I need special socks for Tabi shoes?
While not strictly required, split-toe or Tabi-specific socks are recommended for comfort.
How should I clean the leather?
Use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and a leather-safe cream to maintain moisture.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty wearing the split-toe design
Allow for a break-in period where the leather softens to your foot shape and consider using specialized tabi-style socks.
Leather sole wearing down too quickly
Take the shoes to a professional cobbler to have a rubber sole protector applied.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When first trying on the Tabi, ensure you have appropriate socks if you prefer to wear them, keeping in mind the split-toe requirement. For care, keep the leather supple by using a high-quality leather conditioner and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Given the leather sole, it is recommended to have a professional cobbler apply a thin protective rubber tap to the bottom to prolong the life of the sole if you plan to walk outdoors frequently.
