Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, our canvas slip-ons run true to standard US sizing. We recommend ordering your usual shoe size for the best fit.

Yes. The premium cotton canvas will naturally mold and stretch slightly to the shape of your foot after a few wears, providing a custom, comfortable fit.

If you typically wear a half size and prefer a snug fit, we recommend sizing down. The canvas will stretch to accommodate your foot.

Currently, we offer standard medium widths. However, the flexible canvas upper naturally adapts to slightly wider feet after a short break-in period.

They should feel snug but not painfully tight. Your toes should lightly touch the front. Within a few hours of walking, the canvas will loosen up perfectly.

Absolutely. While designed to be breathable and comfortable barefoot, you can easily pair them with no-show socks for extra comfort.

Our espadrilles feature a flat, casual profile with a cushioned EVA sole that absorbs shock, offering great everyday comfort without aggressive arch built-in.

Most of our customers report a perfect fit within the first 1 to 2 days of regular wear.

Initially, slight heel slippage is normal with new canvas slip-ons. Once the canvas softens and molds to your foot, the shoe will grip your heel securely.

The design is universally comfortable. We simply separate our sizing options on the website to make it easier for you to find your exact US Men's or Women's size.

We use premium, breathable cotton canvas for the upper, a shock-absorbing EVA sole for the base, and an authentic jute wrap for that classic look.

Yes. Every pair of our canvas espadrilles is 100% vegan. We use absolutely no animal products in our materials or glues.

No, and that’s by design. We upgraded the classic style by using a lightweight, moisture-resistant EVA sole on the bottom, wrapped with traditional jute on the sides for better durability and comfort.

Yes. The high-quality cotton canvas allows air to circulate, keeping your feet cool and comfortable even during peak summer days.

While the EVA sole protects against wet ground, the canvas upper and jute wrap are not waterproof. They are designed for dry, everyday adventures.

EVA is significantly lighter and offers superior shock absorption compared to traditional heavy rubber, making them perfect for all-day walking.

Yes. The interior is unlined premium cotton canvas, which feels soft and natural against bare feet.

We use high-quality dyes, but like any natural cotton product, prolonged exposure to direct, harsh sunlight over months may cause a slight, natural fade.

Extremely lightweight. Our EVA sole and canvas construction make them easy to pack and practically weightless on your feet.

Our jute detailing is securely bonded to the EVA sole. While minor fraying can happen with heavy wear over time, it maintains its structural integrity.

Spot clean the canvas upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Let them air dry completely. Avoid getting the jute wrap soaking wet.

No. Machine washing will damage the authentic jute wrap and can compromise the shape of the canvas. Always clean them by hand.

The bottom EVA sole can easily be wiped clean with a damp sponge or a soft brush to remove dirt.

Stuff them with newspaper to absorb the moisture and help them keep their shape, then let them air dry at room temperature away from direct heat.

Never. The extreme heat will shrink the cotton canvas and melt the adhesives used in the sole construction.

Let the mud dry completely first. Once dry, use a soft-bristled brush to gently brush the dirt away before spot cleaning.

Yes, applying a standard canvas water-and-stain repellent spray can help protect the upper, but avoid spraying the jute sides directly.

You can sprinkle a little baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, or use standard shoe deodorizer sprays.

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag.

We do not recommend using bleach, as it can weaken the cotton fibers and cause yellowing. Stick to mild detergents.

We believe everyday choices should fuel tangible change. That’s why every pair of shoes sold directly funds a nutritious meal for a child in need.

Every three months, we sit down together, prepare a traditional mate, and review all the sales from the past quarter. With the total number of pairs sold, we choose a trusted organization and donate the equivalent of one complete, nutritious meal for every single pair sold. It’s a special moment for us — sharing mate, reflecting on the impact, and sending the donation with joy. For us, it’s not just a number… it’s a ritual that reminds us why we do what we do.

Absolutely not. The donation is fully covered by the purchase price of your shoes.

Yes! The impact scales with your purchase. Buy two pairs, we fund two meals.

Yes. No matter the price you pay, our commitment remains the same. Every pair equals one meal, zero exceptions.

Proper nutrition is the foundation for a child's health, education, and future. We want to ensure children have the energy to learn, play, and grow.

We partner with established organizations to fund the actual food and distribution for the meals, ensuring the resources go exactly where they are needed most.

Fighting food insecurity through our meal program is our primary mission and focus right now, ensuring we make a deep and direct impact.

Wear your BRONCAs proudly and share the story behind your shoes. Word of mouth is the strongest tool to help us fund more meals.
