SIZE & CARE

How do laidback london's fit?

Our sandals and boots run true to size. Please refer to our sizing info for length and widest point. Please size up if you are between sizes. Please refer to our size guide (on the product page) for our US/EU/UK size conversion.

Our products are made from natural materials including leather, suede and sheep wool.

We recommend a snug fit initially as these materials will open and mould to the shape of your feet with wear.

How do I care for my laidback london's?

Personally, we love the look of a worn in pair of laidback london’s that have been tested by the elements.

If you get caught in the rain in a pair of our sandals, use a dry cloth to wipe and leave the sandals to dry.

For our suede and leather boots, you may want to use a suede or leather protector before you start wearing them.
