FAQs
Are these sandals waterproof?
No, the suede material is not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. These sandals are best suited for dry conditions.
How do I clean the cork footbed?
You can wipe the cork footbed with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking it and allow it to air dry completely, away from direct heat sources.
Can the straps be adjusted for wide feet?
The straps feature an adjustable metal pin buckle, which allows for some adjustment to accommodate different foot widths within a regular fit range.
What is the purpose of the anatomically shaped footbed?
The anatomically shaped cork-latex footbed is designed to provide support to the natural contours of the foot, promoting proper alignment and comfort during walking.
How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?
Ensure there is a small space (about 0.5 cm) between the tip of your child's toes and the edge of the sandal, and a similar space at the heel. The straps should secure the foot comfortably without pinching.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made of EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate), a lightweight and flexible material known for its shock-absorbing properties.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel stiff initially
This is normal for new cork-latex footbeds. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to the foot's shape.
Suede is dirty or stained
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stubborn stains, use a suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid water, as it can damage suede.
Straps won't stay buckled
Ensure the metal pin is properly inserted through one of the buckle holes. If the buckle is worn, contact customer support for potential replacement options.
Footbed feels uncomfortable after prolonged wear
Ensure the correct size has been selected. The anatomically shaped footbed may require a short adjustment period. If discomfort persists, consult the sizing guide or consider a different model.
