FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for swimming?
Yes, these water shoes are designed for use in and around water, including swimming. They provide grip and protection while in the water.
How do I clean the Hot Tuna Aqua Water Shoes?
Rinse with fresh water after use and air dry away from direct sunlight. For cleaning, use mild soap and water on the textile upper, then rinse and air dry.
What material is the outsole made of?
The outsole is made of TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber), which is known for its flexibility and grip.
Can my child wear these all day?
The breathable textile upper is designed for comfort, but like any footwear, it's best to give feet a break. They are ideal for active water-related periods.
How do the sizes work?
These are junior sizes. It is recommended to check the brand's specific sizing chart or measure your child's foot for the best fit, as sizing can vary.
Will these shoes protect my child's feet from sharp objects?
The TPR outsole offers good protection against common beach hazards like shells and small stones. However, they are not intended as heavy-duty protective footwear for extremely sharp or heavy objects.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure the correct size has been selected. If still tight, allow for a brief break-in period or check if the footbed is fully settled.
Traction seems reduced
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. Rinse with fresh water and allow to dry.
Difficulty removing shoes
Ensure the heel pull tab is used correctly. If stuck, try wiggling the foot gently while pulling the tab.
Upper material feels stiff after drying
This can happen with textile materials. Gentle flexing of the shoe should restore flexibility. Ensure drying was not done in direct, intense heat.
