Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the hook and loop closure on the quarter strap. Tighten or loosen the strap until you achieve a snug yet comfortable fit that keeps your foot securely in place without feeling constricted. Ensure your foot is properly centered on the Arch Fit footbed.
My feet feel uncomfortable after long wear.
While designed for comfort, ensure the Arch Fit contoured footbed aligns correctly with your foot's natural arch. If discomfort persists, verify that you are wearing the correct size. Initial wear might require a short adjustment period, but persistent discomfort may indicate a sizing issue or that the sandals are not suited for your specific foot mechanics. Consider taking breaks if performing unusually long periods of standing or walking.
The sandals appear dirty or have an odor.
Utilize the machine washable feature. Place the sandals in a laundry bag, wash on a gentle cycle with cold water, and then allow them to air dry completely. This process effectively removes dirt and refreshes the sandals.
