FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for hiking?
The Keen Uneek sandals are suitable for light hiking and walking on established trails, especially in warm weather. Their grip and comfort are beneficial, but they offer less support and protection than dedicated hiking boots for rugged terrain.
How do I clean the cords and footbed?
You can clean the entire sandal with a damp cloth. For a deeper clean, use cold water and a mild soap, then let them air dry away from direct heat.
What is the purpose of the two-cord construction?
The two-cord construction is designed to adapt to the natural shape of your foot, providing a secure, free-moving, and personalized fit that offers flexibility and comfort.
Are these waterproof?
No, these sandals are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability and quick drying, making them ideal for warm weather and potential water crossings, but they do not keep feet dry in rain or submersion.
What kind of socks, if any, should I wear with these sandals?
These sandals are typically worn without socks to maximize breathability and take advantage of the microfiber lining. If you choose to wear socks, opt for thin, moisture-wicking athletic socks.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart. These sandals are designed to fit true to size with an adaptive lacing system. Consider your usual shoe size for open footwear.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the cord lacing system. Loosen the toggle to allow more room, or tighten it for a more snug fit. Ensure the cords are evenly distributed around the foot.
Slipping on very smooth or wet surfaces.
While designed for wet traction, extremely polished surfaces can still be slippery. Exercise caution and ensure the outsole is clean for optimal grip.
Cords feel uncomfortable after extended wear.
Ensure the cords are not digging into the foot. Try readjusting the tension and distribution of the cords. The microfiber lining helps to mitigate friction, but proper fit is key.
