SHOES

Flatheads uppers are made of natural bamboo and polyester threads that are knit to give them a ridiculously breathable form.
We could tell you that our soles are made of EVA and are shockproof, flexible, water-resistant & lightweight. Or that our insoles are made of cushiony PU to distribute the weight of your body evenly. But what we really mean is that they are made of ridiculously comfortable stuff!
Yes! You can even swap them for custom/orthopedic insoles. But with insoles THIS ridiculously soft, we doubt you'd remove them anyway.
Flatheads are equipped to get you through the grind. 14+ hours and going strong! However, we recommend casual wear. Avoid rough use (training/gymming/trekking).
Our shoes are designed to be moisture, tear, and weather resistant. With good care, they can last over 18 months. But a bond with us? Now that lasts forever (excuse the cringe).

Call us Vivaldi because we're all about the four seasons. So yes, we last through all of them.
We like to look sharp, always. Our uppers have been tested for colorfastness & fade resistance. We recommend occasional cold water washes with soft detergents!
Like most high-end shoes, we are made of modern materials. However, we respect sustainability and have launched our latest lines made of natural bamboo uppers, the Troos and Aurea.
Flatheads are all-day sneakers, suited to get you through the grind. We promise you 14+ hours of comfort but don't recommend rough usage for sports, gym, running, etc.
Even the Summer of '69 couldn't have your feet sweating in a Flatheads. Our shoes are ridiculously breathable and keep your feet cool in the hottest summers.
We believe in making shoes of substance, for a man of substance. Our quality is at par with international brands, having passed over 35 quality tests - which not many Indian brands can do. We promise that we are worth every penny you spend. Give us a try.

SIZING

You know what they say about big feet. You've got a big heart, of course. Jokes aside, we’ve got you covered. Buy one size larger than your usual size.
Check out our size chart on the product page. We follow the India/UK size charts.
No, but you can size up to the next size, and it will fit you perfectly. Flatheads uppers are flexible and adapt to your feet like socks. Why go half when you can go whole!
Forgive the bad pun but, X brand will soon become your Ex-brand because once you try the Flatheads life, there's no turning back! Refer to the size chart on the product page for your size.
Not yet, but we will soon!
No, we don't make those sizes as of now.
Our limited-edition shoes are in much demand and go out of stock quickly! We'd hate for you to miss out on our shoes, so drop us a mail at hey@flatheads.in so we can notify you when we're back in stock!

MASKS

Yes, Flatheads KN95 masks can be worn everyday - they protect you from air pollution (particulate matter PM2.5, PM10).
Flatheads masks can be reused for up to 40 hours wearing time. That's more than a month if you wear them for 1 hour a day! Post that, we recommend discarding the mask and purchasing another one.
Washing your mask reduces its air filtration effectiveness. Not recommended!
Yes, we ship our masks anywhere in India.
Sorry, we do not accept returns of the masks for hygiene & safety purposes.
