FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for hiking?
The Explore Camp Sandals are best suited for casual walks and around-camp use. They are not designed for technical trails or long-distance hiking due to their minimalist sole and support structure.
How do I adjust the fit?
You can adjust the instep volume using the quick lace system and cord lock. The heel fit can also be adjusted via a strap mechanism for a secure fit.
What is the toe cap for?
The EVA toe cap provides a protective yet minimalist barrier against minor bumps and impacts, safeguarding your toes in casual outdoor environments.
Can I wear these in water?
Yes, these sandals are suitable for use around water and dry relatively quickly. However, they do not offer significant grip on very wet, slippery surfaces.
How should I clean them?
Wipe them with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use mild soap and water, then air dry completely away from direct heat.
What material are they made of?
The sandals feature an EVA toe cap and are constructed with materials suitable for casual outdoor wear and quick drying.
Are these sandals gender-specific?
These sandals are designed for adults and are suitable for men. The adjustable fit allows for comfortable wear by various users.
Troubleshooting
Sandal feels loose even after adjustment
Ensure the cord lock on the quick lace system is fully tightened and the heel strap is securely fastened. Re-adjust both for a snugger fit.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
The sandal's fit may need further adjustment. Experiment with tightening or loosening the instep lace and heel strap. Consider if the sandal's minimalist design meets your support needs for the activity.
Strap adjustment is difficult
Check that the quick lace cord is not tangled or obstructed. Gently work the cord lock to loosen or tighten it. Ensure the lace is threaded correctly through the eyelets.
Odor development
Clean the sandals with mild soap and water, then allow them to air dry thoroughly. Wearing moisture-wicking socks with the sandals can also help reduce odor.
