Room Shoe Sizing Tips: Room shoes are designed for maximum comfort and are very forgiving when it comes to sizing, but it is important that your foot is not larger than the footbed. To ensure a proper fit, put on the type of socks you plan to wear with your room shoes and measure the length of your foot (in centimeters) while standing. Compare this measurement with the Japanese sizing in the chart below - which is also measured in centimeters - to determine the appropriate size. If you fall between sizes, round up, and if you have particularly wide feet, consider moving up one size. For more tips, check out our Rikumo Journal post on achieving a perfect fit.

These room booties are hand washable. Wash separately using a wool detergent and fabric softener. Do not use chlorine bleach. After washing, reshape and dry in the shade. Avoid strong friction. Pilling may occur over time, due to the nature of long-fiber wool. Trim with scissors or use a wool brush when needed to remove pilling and restore the look of the shoes.
