Hemp Care & Break-In Guide

How do I break in my hemp sneakers?

Wear them for short periods (1–2 hours) the first few days. Hemp fibers naturally soften and conform to your foot shape within 3–5 wears. Wearing thick socks during the first few uses can speed up the process.

How do I clean my hemp shoes?

Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or submerging in water, as this can weaken the natural fibers. Air dry away from direct sunlight or heat.

Can I wear hemp sneakers in the rain?

Hemp is naturally moisture-resistant but not waterproof. For light rain, they'll hold up fine. For heavy rain, we recommend a plant-based water-repellent spray applied before wear.

How do I keep them fresh?

Air them out after each wear. You can use a small amount of baking soda inside overnight to absorb odors. Avoid storing in plastic bags — let them breathe.

Will the color fade over time?

Natural hemp dyes may soften slightly with wear and washing, which gives them a beautiful lived-in look. To preserve color, keep them out of prolonged direct sunlight when storing.
