FAQs
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Refer to the size guide provided by the retailer. Generally, slide sizes correspond to standard UK shoe sizes. If you are between sizes, it is often recommended to size up for slides.
Can I wear these for running or sports?
No, these slides are designed for casual wear and comfort. They do not provide the necessary support or stability for athletic activities like running or training.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The synthetic upper and contoured design may fit snugly. If you have wider feet, it's advisable to try them on if possible or consider sizing up. Reviewing customer feedback on fit might also be helpful.
How do I clean the platform sole?
The EVA platform sole can be cleaned gently with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild soap and water solution, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
What is the main advantage of the platform design?
The platform design offers an elevated, fashionable aesthetic while contributing to the overall cushioning and comfort provided by the EVA material.
Can these be worn in the shower or as shower slides?
While they are water-resistant and can be worn poolside, they are not specifically designed as shower slides. For prolonged wet use, ensure they are properly dried afterwards to maintain material integrity and prevent odor.
Troubleshooting
Slides feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. For initial wear, try wearing them for short periods to allow the footbed to adapt to your foot's shape. If the issue persists, consider a size up or a different model if your foot is wide.
Slipping on wet surfaces.
While the EVA outsole provides traction, always exercise caution on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the footbed is dry before wearing.
Material appears discolored or warped.
This can occur due to prolonged exposure to high heat or direct sunlight. Always store and dry the slides away from heat sources. Clean only with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, then air dry.
