FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for swimming?

Yes, these aqua water shoes are designed for use in and around water, including swimming. They provide protection and grip in aquatic environments.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

We recommend measuring your child's foot and comparing it to the size chart. Water shoes can sometimes feel a little looser than regular shoes, especially when wet, but ensure there is no excessive slipping.

Can these shoes be worn for hiking?

These shoes are best suited for wet and slippery surfaces. For hiking on varied terrain, especially dry trails, dedicated hiking footwear is recommended for better support and grip.

How long does it take for the shoes to dry?

The textile upper is designed for quick drying. In warm, dry conditions with good air circulation, they should dry within a few hours after being rinsed and shaken off.

Are they machine washable?

No, these shoes should not be machine washed or tumble dried. Hand-washing with fresh water and air-drying is the recommended care method.

What is the main benefit of the multi-direction grip pattern?

The multi-direction grip pattern provides enhanced traction on slippery surfaces, helping to prevent slips and falls in wet conditions like around pools or on boat decks.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If they are still loose, consider using a thin insole or ensuring socks are not worn inside to achieve a snugger fit. Due to the nature of water shoes, a slightly looser fit can be preferred for comfort in water.

Water drainage seems slow

Ensure the shoe's materials are not compacted with debris. A thorough rinse should help clear any blockages. The design prioritizes grip and protection, so some drainage time is normal.

Discomfort on dry, hard surfaces

These shoes are optimized for wet environments. For extended periods of walking on hard, dry surfaces, consider alternative footwear. The tread pattern is designed for grip on slippery, not necessarily cushioned, surfaces.
