Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these slides waterproof?
Yes, they are made from EVA foam, which does not absorb water and is ideal for wet environments.
Can I use these for long-distance walking?
These are intended for recovery and casual wear, not for long-distance walking or hiking, as they lack the ankle support required for uneven terrain.
How do I determine my size?
These slides follow standard adult UK sizing. If you prefer a looser fit or intend to wear them with thick socks, you may consider sizing up.
Will the logo fade over time?
The branding is durable, but avoid scrubbing the logo directly with abrasive pads to maintain its appearance.
Are they machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these. Hand washing with a damp cloth is sufficient to keep them clean.
Troubleshooting
Slides feel slippery when wet
While the material is water-resistant, it can become slick when soap or oils are present. Wipe the footbed dry with a towel to regain traction.
Material feels stiff in cold temperatures
EVA foam can firm up in freezing conditions. Bring them into a warmer indoor environment for a few minutes, and the material will return to its standard flexibility.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These slides require no setup out of the box. Simply select your correct UK size and wear immediately. To ensure your slides last through many seasons, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or scrubbing brushes that might damage the EVA texture.
- Storage: Keep them out of direct, intense sunlight for extended periods, as prolonged UV exposure can cause the foam to harden or lose its shape.
- Compatibility: These are unisex-styled sandals, but please check the size guide carefully; the fit is designed for adult foot contours, providing a standard width.
