FAQs
Are these slides suitable for swimming?
Yes, they feature a water-friendly mesh detail and a grip sole suitable for wet surfaces, making them ideal for poolside or beach use.
How do I clean my The North Face Explore Camp Slides?
You can easily clean them with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
Can I wear these for hiking?
While they offer good grip, these are slides designed for casual wear and light activities. For hiking, we recommend footwear with more foot protection and support.
Is the strap adjustable?
Yes, the wide strap features an adjustable hook-and-loop mechanism to ensure a custom and secure fit.
What kind of support do these slides offer?
They feature a contoured EVA footbed that provides cushioning and ergonomic support for everyday comfort.
Are they true to size?
The North Face slides typically run true to size. For the best fit, we recommend consulting The North Face's official sizing chart if available, or trying them on if possible.
Troubleshooting
Slides feel loose or too tight
Adjust the wide strap using the hook-and-loop fastening mechanism until a comfortable and secure fit is achieved.
Foot slides around inside the sandal
Ensure the adjustable strap is tightened appropriately. If feet are wet, the water-friendly design helps, but extreme wetness can still cause some movement; ensure the sole and foot are as dry as possible, or adjust strap for a firmer grip.
Slides develop an odor after prolonged use
Rinse slides thoroughly with mild soap and water, paying attention to the footbed. Allow them to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
Reduced grip on surfaces
Check the sole for any embedded debris or excessive wear. Clean the sole with a brush and water to restore traction. If the sole is heavily worn, the grip may naturally diminish over time, indicating potential need for replacement.
