FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for extensive hiking?
The EXPLORE CAMP Sandals are designed for light trails, casual walks, and camp use. While they offer excellent grip and cushioning, for extensive or technical hiking, a more enclosed hiking shoe would provide better foot protection and support.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Utilize the adjustable strap with adhesive fastening. Fasten it securely across the top of your foot, ensuring it's snug enough to hold your foot in place without causing pressure points or discomfort.
Can I wear these sandals in water?
Yes, the Surface Control™ Rubber Outsole is designed to provide grip and traction on both dry and wet surfaces. The FlashDry™ technology also aids in breathability and helps with moisture management, making them suitable for environments where they might get wet.
What is the benefit of Lightweight Superfoam?
The Lightweight Superfoam provides unparalleled cushioning, absorbing impact and offering superior comfort for extended periods of wear, reducing foot fatigue.
How do I clean the sandals?
Clean with a mild soap and water solution, using a soft brush or cloth. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
Do these sandals offer arch support?
The sandals feature a moulded footbed that contours to the natural shape of your foot, offering inherent support for general comfort during wear.
Troubleshooting
Sandal feels loose or too tight
Adjust the adhesive fastening strap. Ensure it's secure enough to prevent slipping but not so tight that it causes discomfort or restricts circulation.
Foot slips inside the sandal, especially when wet
Ensure the footbed is clean and dry. The Surface Control™ Rubber outsole provides grip on wet ground, but internal slippage can occur if the footbed is excessively wet or soiled. Re-adjust straps for a tighter fit if needed.
Unpleasant odor develops
Regularly clean the footbed and straps with mild soap and water. Allow sandals to air dry completely after each use, especially if they've gotten wet or sweaty. Consider using a foot powder if odors persist.

Care
To maintain the longevity and freshness of your EXPLORE CAMP Sandals:
- Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt. For more thorough cleaning, use a mild soap (like dish soap) mixed with water and a soft brush or cloth. Gently scrub the footbed and straps.
- Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly with clean water, ensuring all soap residue is removed.
- Drying: Allow the sandals to air dry completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, as this can degrade materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
