Full details
The FitFlop Gracie Fisherman Sandals in Silver are designed for adult women seeking comfortable, stylish footwear for everyday wear. Their key benefit lies in the ultra-lightweight Dynamicush™ midsoles, providing exceptional cushioning and ergonomic support for all-day comfort and enhanced natural movement. A potential caveat is their minimalist tread, which may offer less grip on very slippery surfaces. These sandals feature a secure, strappy upper made of smooth metallic leather and a slim, sleek sole, blending minimalist design with maximum comfort. They are ergonomically engineered to optimize body alignment and natural movement, featuring natural arch support and a light tread outsole for steady, flexible grip. Notably, these shoes have received the APMA Seal of Acceptance for promoting good foot health.

FAQs

How do I clean the metallic leather finish?

What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?
It signifies that the American Podiatric Medical Association has reviewed the footwear and found it to be beneficial for promoting good foot health.
Are these sandals waterproof?
No, the leather upper is not waterproof. They are designed for dry or mildly damp conditions. Avoid submerging them in water.
How should I store these sandals when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees or stuffing them with tissue paper can help maintain their shape.
What is the typical lifespan of these sandals?

Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness in leather straps upon first wear.
Leather will naturally soften and mold to your foot with wear. You can gently flex the straps by hand to help expedite the process. Avoid excessive bending that could crease the leather.
Sandals feel less grippy on wet surfaces.
The tread is designed for general use. For very wet or slippery conditions, exercise caution. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris, as this can affect grip.
Discoloration on the metallic leather.
Metallic finishes can be sensitive. Avoid contact with rough surfaces or abrasive materials. Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth only. If significant discoloration occurs, consult a shoe care specialist.

Care: To maintain the quality and appearance of your leather sandals:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the leather.
- Drying: If the sandals get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, which can dry out and crack the leather.
- Conditioning: Periodically, consider using a leather conditioner specifically designed for metallic leather to keep it supple and prevent it from drying out. Test any conditioner on an inconspicuous area first.
- Storage: Store the sandals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees or stuffing them with acid-free tissue paper can help maintain their shape.
