Absolutely! Here’s how it's done: Begin by taking out the insoles and laces, then use a towel or soft brush to sweep off any loose dirt. Place the shoes in the washing machine on the wool/delicates cycle (use cold water). We highly recommend putting the shoes in a linen bag or a pillowcase for extra protection. Always use a mild detergent and steer clear of bleach entirely. Then air dry for at least a day; do not tumble dry. (Learn more about caring for your Allbirds here.)
While it’s true that our shoes are certainly soft and plush enough to go sockless, they’re not purposely designed to wear without socks all the time.
Still, for those days when you’re going , materials like our soft, moisture-wicking ZQ Merino wool and plush, odor-minimizing castor bean oil insoles will provide your feet with the breathability and comfort they need. However, for those days when you really need a comfy pair of socks, check out our Trino™ sock collection to find some in your style and colors of choice.
