FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These shoes are primarily designed for water-based activities and offer limited support for running. For running, a dedicated athletic shoe is recommended.
Can I wear these shoes with socks?
While you can wear them with socks, they are designed to be worn barefoot for optimal performance in water and quick drying. Wearing socks may affect the fit and drying time.
How do I dry these shoes quickly?
After rinsing, shake off excess water and allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight or high heat, which can degrade the materials.
What is the best way to clean the inside of the shoes?
You can rinse the inside with fresh water and use a soft brush or cloth to gently clean any residue. Follow up with a wipe using a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Are these shoes fully waterproof?
These shoes are designed to be worn in water and dry quickly. They are not intended to be fully waterproof in the sense of a waterproof boot, but rather to allow water to pass through and drain.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is made of a durable synthetic material, designed to provide traction in wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
If the shoes feel snug, try wearing them for short periods to allow the materials to adapt. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size based on your foot measurement. For immediate comfort, consider if a slightly larger size would be more suitable for your needs.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
While designed for grip on wet surfaces, extreme smoothness or specific artificial materials might reduce traction. Ensure the soles are clean of any debris. For added caution on exceptionally slick surfaces, tread carefully.
Water drains slowly
Check if any drainage points are obstructed by sand or debris. Gently rinse the shoes under running water to clear any blockages. Ensure the shoes are positioned to allow water to flow out freely.
