FAQs

Are these suitable for hiking?

While they offer good support for casual wear and light walking, they are not designed for strenuous hiking. The open construction and cord lacing may not provide adequate protection or grip for rugged trails.

How do I clean the cords?

You can clean the cords by using a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Gently scrub the cords and wipe them clean with a fresh damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

What is the primary material used?

The primary material is leather for the main body of the footwear, complemented by a durable polyester cord system.

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

They can handle light moisture due to the quick-drying nature of the cords and materials, but they are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion is not recommended as it can affect the leather.

What does 'Uneek' refer to?

'Uneek' refers to Keen's patented design featuring two cords and a sole, creating a unique, free-moving structure that adapts to the foot.

How does the sizing work for UK 6.5?

The UK 6.5 sizing refers to the standard British shoe sizing. It is advisable to compare this measurement with your foot length in centimeters or inches using a sizing chart to ensure the best fit.

Is this product suitable for a wide foot?

The UNEEK design, with its adaptive cord system, generally accommodates a variety of foot widths well. The cords can be adjusted to provide a more custom fit.

Troubleshooting

Footwear feels too tight or loose.

Adjust the cord lacing system by tightening or loosening the knot at the heel. Ensure you have selected the correct size; refer to sizing charts if unsure.

Leather appears dry or cracked.

Apply a quality leather conditioner according to product instructions. Ensure the footwear is clean before conditioning.

Unpleasant odor develops.

Clean the footbed with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to air dry completely. Consider using a deodorizing spray or powder designed for footwear.

Cords snagging or fraying.

Trim any small frays carefully with scissors. If significant damage occurs, contact customer support for potential repair or replacement options.
