Rinse with clean water (remember, no soaking necessary) and make sure to get rid of all soap residue.

For outstanding cleaning, please pay particular attention to the following:
You can stuff your Paez with some kitchen paper or a dry cloth to help them keep their shape as they dry.
Heads up! If your Paez have yute (or rope) soles, take extra care and avoid squeezing them with excess water. Instead, gently wipe them down with a damp cloth.
Just a friendly reminder: Whatever you do, don't put your Paez in the washing machine or dryer. That's a big no-no.
As for the soles, you can simply wipe them clean with a damp cloth. And if you're wondering about the insoles, they're non-removable and vegan. Keep them fresh by giving your shoes a chance to breathe or using an insole spray.
