When my Rainbows get wet they dye my feet dark brown. Does this happen to anyone else? How can you get it off water, soap, and scrubbing doesnt seem to do it.

sandals. I have seen them do it to my friend a bunch of times. Usually stops after they are broken in though.

yeah, get them wet, and stuff them with papaertowels. Leave them out to dry, and it takes it away. i had the same problem. Also, wipe the inside with leather conditioner/cleaner

here is a pic, btw my rainbows are approaching a year old and are worn almost everyday. It never happens except when they get wet, like when I slip them on after swimming.
Its actually darker than the picture shows. Especially on the balls of my feet.

at first I thought this was a drunk post... read it like it's actually referring to real rainbows.

Same... This happened to me with my birkenstocks, they just have to wear in(not break in).

Problem is they are 9 months old and the sole is almost gone. So there not gonna be broken in much more.

^^^ Hahaha, weirdo. Just get your rainbows wet a lot more. It's only the dye coming off onto your feet. Theres nothing you can do about it...

Or... Don't get them wet at all..
Whenever I'm going somewhere where my feet will get wet-like the beach- I don't wear them..
Or I dry my feet off first?

Yeah, it has happened to me before. But, after a while (I have had mine for 2 years now) it does not happen so much. Just wash your feet with soap, it'll come off.

Yeah, that happened with my old ones too. Baaaaaaaad idea to get them wet. I bought some new ones and I try my hardest to not get water on them, but that hasn't been working out too well.
