FAQs

Are these sandals waterproof?

No, the suede upper and cork footbed are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to water can damage the materials.

How do I know if the fit is correct?

There should be a small amount of space around the heel and toes when standing. The foot should rest comfortably within the cupped heel and arch support.

Can the straps be replaced?

While the buckles are durable, it is recommended to have professional repairs done by a cobbler if a strap is damaged.

Is this model suitable for children with narrow feet?

Yes, the adjustable metal buckles allow you to tighten the straps for a more secure fit on narrow feet.

How often should I clean the sandals?

A quick brush-off after use is helpful. Deep cleaning is only necessary if the sandals become visibly stained.

Troubleshooting

Footbed feels stiff during the first wear

This is normal for new cork footbeds. Wear them for short intervals indoors to allow the material to slowly mold to your child's specific foot shape.

Suede looks dull or dusty

Use a soft suede brush to gently buff the nap of the material, which will restore its texture and remove superficial dust.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ankle strap provides extra security for active children
  • High-quality, durable materials that mold to the foot over time
  • Lightweight design makes them comfortable for all-day use
  • Adjustable buckles accommodate different foot widths

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to water and damp conditions
  • Requires a brief break-in period for the cork footbed
  • Lighter beige color is prone to showing dirt more quickly

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your sandals provide the best experience, start by adjusting the buckles so that the foot is securely held in place without cutting off circulation. Ensure the toes are positioned behind the raised edge of the footbed.

Care Instructions:

  1. Avoid wearing in heavy rain or deep puddles to protect the suede.
  2. Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt or debris regularly.
  3. Keep away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can dry out and crack the cork footbed.
  4. If the footbed becomes dirty, wipe it gently with a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry in the shade.
