Caring For Your Japanese Room Shoes

If you want to maximize your comfort, investing in a pair of Japanese room shoes can be an excellent choice. While these shoes can keep your feet comfortable without you needing to wear full shoes, there are some important care tips that should be followed to maximize the lifespan of these comfortable shoes.

Make Sure You Are Wearing Room Shoes That Fit Your Feet

One of the most important tips for extending the life of your Japanese room shoes and maximizing your comfort is to ensure that you have purchased room shoes that properly fit your feet. Often, individuals will fail to choose a shoe that fully fits the length of their feet. This can make the shoes far less comfortable to wear as well as potentially putting excessive strain on the shoes, which can cause them to warp and even tear.

Only Wear The Room Shoes Indoors

Room shoes are extremely soft, as they are designed entirely for indoor use. Wearing these shoes outdoors can cause them to suffer serious wear. In addition to the risk of permanent staining occurring to them, rocks, sticks, or other items could tear the shoes. Making it a point to always keep your shoes near the door can make it easier to quickly change out of your room shoes when you want to go outdoors. Wearing these shoes outdoors even just a few times could be enough to cause them to experience considerable wear that may shorten their lifespan.

Regularly Clean The Room Shoes

While these shoes are designed to be only used indoors, you will still need to make it a point to clean them regularly. In addition to removing dirt and dust that could discolor the shoes, cleaning them will also prevent the room shoes from developing odors due to the sweat from your feet. When cleaning these shoes, you will want to use the gentle cycle on your washing machine. Furthermore, you should also only allow these shoes to air dry when you have finished washing them. The intense heat from the dryer could cause extensive damage to the fibers of these shoes. In some cases, you may find that these shoes may no longer fit your feet correctly after you have dried them with intense heat. Luckily, these shoes will dry quickly as long as you have them in an area that has good ventilation.
