FAQs
Are these slides suitable for wide feet?
The Gracie slides feature a criss-crossing strap design that offers a secure fit. While they are designed for comfort, they may not accommodate very wide feet due to the fixed strap configuration.
Can I wear these for light exercise or sports?
These slides are engineered for comfort and casual wear. While they offer good grip for light trails, they are not designed for athletic activities or high-impact sports.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure your heel is comfortably within the back of the sole and your toes do not extend beyond the front. There should be minimal slipping when you walk.
What is the advantage of Dynamicush™ technology?
Dynamicush™ provides enhanced, high-rebound cushioning that absorbs impact, reduces pressure on your feet, and offers superior comfort, especially in slim and lightweight sole designs.
Are these slides waterproof?
The slides are not fully waterproof. While they can handle light splashes, they are best avoided in prolonged wet conditions. Ensure they are dried thoroughly if they get wet.
Can the straps be adjusted?
No, the strap design is fixed and not adjustable. They are crafted to hug the foot securely.
Troubleshooting
Slides feel too tight or stiff on first wear.
The webbing straps are designed to be soft but may need a short break-in period. Wear them for short intervals initially to allow them to mold to your foot shape.
Slipping despite the grip feature.
Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. The grip is optimized for dry, relatively even surfaces; avoid extremely slick or uneven terrain.
Foot discomfort after extended wear.
Verify you have the correct size. While designed for comfort, prolonged wear on varied surfaces might require additional support for some individuals. Ensure the natural arch support aligns correctly with your foot.
