Product Information
Full details
The FitFlop GRACIE Sandals are designed for adult women seeking stylish and comfortable footwear for warmer months and casual wear. Their key benefit is biomechanically engineered cushioning that absorbs impact and supports natural movement for all-day comfort, a significant advantage over conventional flat sandals. A potential caveat is that while adjustable, the buckle strap may require occasional fine-tuning for a perfect fit. These sandals feature a versatile, minimalist silhouette crafted from smooth leather with a soft, rounded front strap and an adjustable back strap for a secure fit. They are ergonomically designed to promote good foot health and are recognized with the APMA Seal of Acceptance.

FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The GRACIE sandals feature a soft, rounded front strap and an adjustable back strap, which can offer some flexibility. However, they are designed with a standard width in mind. If you have very wide feet, it's recommended to try them on if possible, or consider styles with more adjustable straps.
Can I wear these for exercising or sports?
These sandals are designed for comfort during walking and casual wear. They are not intended for high-impact sports or rigorous exercise, as they lack the specialized support and structure required for such activities.
How do I clean the leather if it gets dirty?
Gently wipe the leather with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a cleaner specifically formulated for leather footwear, testing it on a small, hidden area first. Allow to air dry naturally.
What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?
The APMA Seal of Acceptance is granted to footwear that has been found to promote good foot health by the American Podiatric Medical Association. It indicates that the product has been evaluated for safety and effectiveness in supporting foot health.
Are the straps adjustable?
Yes, the GRACIE sandals feature an adjustable buckle-fastening back strap, allowing you to customize the fit for enhanced security and comfort.
What is the best way to store these sandals?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in their original box or using a dust bag can help protect them. You can also stuff them with tissue paper to help them retain their shape.
Do these sandals offer good grip?
The sandals are equipped with a light tread outsole designed to provide steady, flexible grip for everyday walking. While effective for normal surfaces, caution should be exercised on very wet or extremely slippery conditions.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel slightly tight or loose.
Adjust the buckle strap on the back of the sandal. For tightness, loosen the strap; for looseness, tighten it.
Leather feels stiff or dry.
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Discomfort after initial wear.
Allow a break-in period of a few wears. The biomechanical cushioning and leather will adapt to your foot's natural shape and movement.
Slipping on smooth surfaces.
The light tread outsole provides grip, but initial wear may be on very smooth or wet surfaces where caution is advised. Ensure the outsole is clean.
