Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• Read our fit guide to hone down your Novesta fit.
• These shoes feature a Standard Fit, offering a secure, locked-in feel through the midfoot with a spacious, rounded toe box.
• The 100% cotton canvas provides a structured drape that holds its shape well, while the chunky rubber sole offers a stable, weighted feel.
  
• Please note: This style comes up slightly larger so we recommend ordering at least a whole size smaller than your normal size.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Clean the canvas uppers using a specialised soft brush and mild soapy water to remove surface dust and maintain the black pigment.
• Avoid the use of harsh chemical detergents or bleach, which can weaken the natural cotton fibres and damage the rubber compound.
• Remove the recycled rubber insole before cleaning to allow it to air out separately, helping to maintain a fresh internal environment.
• Allow the shoes to dry naturally at room temperature; avoiding direct heat sources like radiators will prevent the natural rubber from becoming brittle.
• Use a damp cloth to easily wipe the signature vulcanised sole to keep the stealthy black finish looking crisp after urban use.

Our Novesta Star Dribble Shoes FAQs

1. What makes the sole "glue-free"?
   Novesta uses a high-pressure machine to press the natural rubber sole directly onto the cotton upper, creating a permanent bond without the need for toxic chemicals or adhesives.

2. Are these suitable for wide feet?
   The Star Dribble is known for its relatively spacious toe box, and the flexible cotton canvas naturally adapts to the foot shape over a short break-in period.

3. Is this product vegan?
   Yes. There are no animal‐derived components. The build uses natural rubber and cotton, and avoids glues with animal origin.

4. How does sizing run for the Star Dribble Shoes?
   See our handy size guide here, you need to find out before you buy that they are a little different when it comes to sizing.
