Frequently Asked Questions
My insoles are worn out. Can I get replacements?
Yes! You can purchase a new set of insoles for your Lytech and knit products here and best of all, they ship for free!
What size should I order if I wear a half size?
For our leather products, we recommend sizing up to the nearest whole size.
For our Lytech™, techno elastic knit nylon and Elstech collections, these materials are designed to provide more stretch and mold to your foot with wear so you may find that sizing down is more appropriate.
Please refer to our size chart for additional details.
Do you offer your shoes in wide width?
We only offer our shoes in (1) width and that is Medium.
Are the shoes washable and can they be put in the dryer?
Most of our shoes are machine washable. We recommend removing the insole, washing on the gentle cycle inside a garment bag and air dry.
It is advised not to put the shoes to dry direct sunlight as it may have an adverse effect on the color dye.
Do you offer vegan styles?
Yes! We are proud to offer a variety of Vegan options. All Lytech and Elstech products are vegan friendly.
The following styles are leather or have leather insoles and are NOT vegan: Light, Francesca, Alice, Rose, Vanda, Victoria, Vegas, Flower, Queen II, Ellery, N42 and Monterey (except color Biscuit).
Do the leather shoes have removable insoles?
Some of our leather styles do have removeable insoles, but not all.
Please contact ArcopedicoUSA Customer Service here and we would be happy to assist you in your selection.
What is the difference between the Net 3 and the LS?
The knit materials are the same on these products however the heel height on the Net 3 is ¼ inch higher and has monochromatic shoelaces with eyelet detailing.
Do all Arcopedico styles have a dual arch support?
All Arcopedico styles have a dual arch support system with the exception of the Salute line (sandals) which features a cork sole.
Are your shoes waterproof?
While our shoes are not waterproof they are considered water-resistant under normal circumstances.
To help extend the life of your products, you may consider using a clear nubuck treatment for additional protection of your leather products.
Please be advised we are not responsible for damage caused to your shoes by using over the counter sprays. You should always do a small test spot as some materials may change appearance with the application of such treatments.

If you are in need of hardware for your shoes (lace tips for Leta or boot bolts for Liana) or believe a item product you have received may be defective, please contact Customer Service for assistance.
Is the Lolita considered a water shoe?
The Lolita is a fantastic travel companion that is lightweight and quick drying; however, we do not recommend it be submerged into bodies of water (i.e. ocean, pool, lake, etc.) as this may cause discoloration and/or distortion of the shoe’s structure.
