Troubleshooting
Slides feel too tight or narrow.
The bio-based EVA material may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially. If still uncomfortable, consider if a size up would be more appropriate, especially if you are between sizes.
Slipping occurs on very smooth, dry surfaces.
While designed for multi-surface grip, extremely smooth or polished surfaces might reduce traction. Ensure the outsole is free from debris. For enhanced grip on such surfaces, consider alternative footwear.
Discoloration or material changes after sun exposure.
Avoid prolonged direct exposure to intense sunlight or heat, as this can affect the EVA material over time. Store the slides in a cool, dry place when not in use.
Footbed feels too firm initially.
The molded footbed is designed for support. Wear the slides for short periods to allow them to conform to the shape of your foot. The material will soften slightly with body heat and wear.
