FAQs

Are these sandals suitable for swimming?

While the rubber material is water-resistant and dries quickly, they are not designed as water shoes for activities like swimming. They are best suited for casual wear near water, like at the beach or pool.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart, which usually correlates UK/EU sizes with foot length. This specific model is for adult females.

Can I wear these for a formal event?

These sandals offer a touch of elegance with their metallic details but are generally considered casual to semi-casual. They are best suited for relaxed social gatherings rather than formal events.

What is the main difference between You Malta and You Malta Metallic?

The main difference is the embellishment on the strap. The 'Metallic' version features delicate metallic threads woven into the horizontal strap, adding a subtle shimmer.

Are they good for wide feet?

As slide sandals, they offer moderate width. While comfortable for many, individuals with very wide feet might find them snug. Adjustability is limited.

How durable are the metallic threads?

The metallic threads are integrated into the strap material. With normal wear and proper care, they should maintain their appearance. Avoid excessive friction or snagging.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to moisture between the sole layers. Try drying the sandals thoroughly. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Discomfort after extended wear

While designed for comfort, some individuals may need a break-in period. Ensure you have the correct size. If discomfort persists, consider them for shorter durations.

Metallic threads appear dull or faded

Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals and prolonged direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These sandals require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult women seeking comfortable and stylish footwear. They pair well with a wide range of casual and semi-casual attire.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the material and the metallic threads.
  2. Drying: If the sandals get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Prolonged exposure to intense sun can cause the rubber to degrade over time.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in extreme temperatures, such as inside a hot car, to maintain their shape and material integrity.
