MINTY LOWS | SNEAKERS - ADULTS

PaperKrane shoes fit differently than conventional footwear - our barefoot design means a wider toe box and more natural foot shape.

But we've found that most customers find PK shoes fit true to size.

LEATHER AND SUEDE are natural materials and will have subtle variations in grain, tone, and texture - this is part of what makes each pair unique.

Leather and suede will may sometimes feel stiff upon first wear, but will soften and mould to your foot over time.

TO WATERPROOF & PROTECT YOUR PKs apply a leather appropriate waterproof protector before first wear and reapply regularly.

We recommend the following products:

• KIWI Sneaker Protector (great all-rounder), Oakwood Leather Cream (for painted leather), or Collonil Waterstop Colours (for waterproofing single-colour styles)
• This one step makes a significant difference to how long they look and last, don't skip it!

CARE & CLEANING

• Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap for everyday marks
• For a deeper clean, wipe down with a leather-appropriate cleaner and allow to air dry naturally

CAUTION: Avoid machine washing, dryers, and harsh chemicals.

KEEPING YOUR PKS FRESH

• We recommend wearing socks! Simple but effective to keep sweaty feet and odor at bay.
• We also suggest rotating (or alternating) your pairs so they can dry and air out between wears, this is especially important if they've gotten wet or are in high moisture or humid environments.

Most shoes are built for looks. PKs are built for feet.

Conventional shoes squeeze, elevate, and restrict, quietly working against the natural mechanics your feet were designed for. Whether you're a growing kid or a full-grown human who's spent decades in the wrong shoes, the damage is the same. PKs get out of the way and let feet be feet.

Every PK is built on our Four F's:

• Flat: Zero-drop sole keeps your whole body in natural alignment. No heel elevation, no knock-on effect for your knees, hips, or back.
• Foot-shaped: Wide toe box lets toes spread, splay, and grip the way nature intended. No squishing, no overlap, no complaints.
• Flexible: The sole bends with your foot so your muscles actually have to work. Stronger feet, better balance, less pain over time.
• Feather-light: Less shoe means more feel. More feel means better movement, all day long.
