FAQs
What are the Adilette 22 Slides made from?
The Adilette 22 Slides are primarily made from a bio-based EVA material, containing 25% plant-based content derived from sugarcane.
Are these slides suitable for athletic performance?
These slides are designed for comfort and casual wear, such as recovery or everyday use. They are not intended for high-impact athletic performance.
How should I clean my Adilette 22 Slides?
Clean them using a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.
Do the slides come in different colors?
Yes, the Adilette 22 model is available in various colorways, though this guide specifically details the 'Grey Five' color.
What does the design inspiration mean?
The design is inspired by topographical maps of Mars, reflecting a futuristic aesthetic and a commitment to exploring new design frontiers with sustainable materials.
How does the contoured footbed improve comfort?
The contoured footbed is shaped to follow the natural curves of the foot, providing support and cushioning that can reduce pressure points during wear.
What is the 'Grey Five' color?
'Grey Five' refers to a specific shade of grey used for this particular model, often complemented by a black accent for branding.
Troubleshooting
Slides feel too tight or too loose
Refer to the sizing chart for accurate measurement. While the strap is not adjustable, the contoured footbed offers a secure fit for most. Consider if a different size would be more appropriate.
Material feels stiff initially
The bio-based EVA material may require a short break-in period. Wear them around the house for a few hours to allow them to conform to your foot shape.
Slight color variation from images
Color perception can vary based on screen settings and lighting. The 'Grey Five' color is a specific shade of grey; refer to product images for the closest representation.
Outsole grip seems insufficient on very wet surfaces
While designed for traction, extremely slick surfaces can still pose a risk. Exercise caution in very wet conditions. Ensure the outsole is free of debris.
