FAQs
How do I adjust the fit of the Keen Uneek?
The Keen Uneek features a unique two-cord system. To adjust, simply slide the toggle located at the back of the heel. Pulling the toggle towards you tightens the fit, while pushing it away loosens it. Ensure both cords are adjusted for a balanced feel.
Are these suitable for hiking?
The Keen Uneek is best suited for light outdoor activity and casual wear. While the high-traction outsole offers good grip, the minimalist design and lack of extensive ankle support make them less ideal for rugged, uneven terrain or serious hiking.
How do I clean the Keen Uneek sandals?
You can clean them by hand washing with cold water and mild soap. Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
What is the main benefit of the two-cord design?
The primary benefit is an adaptive and personalized fit. The two cords move independently, allowing the sandal to conform to the unique shape of your foot, providing secure hold and comfort.
Can I wear these in wet conditions?
Yes, the materials used are suitable for wet conditions, and the high-traction rubber outsole provides good grip. They are designed to be breathable and quick-drying, making them suitable for near water activities.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from a synthetic textile.
What is the midsole and outsole made of?
The midsole is made of lightweight PU (Polyurethane), and the outsole is made of high-traction rubber.
Troubleshooting
Lacing system feels too loose or too tight.
Adjust the toggle on the cord system. Slide it towards the heel for a tighter fit and towards the toe for a looser fit. Ensure both cords are adjusted evenly for balanced comfort.
Foot odor after extended wear.
Clean the sandals regularly using the recommended care instructions. Ensure feet are dry before wearing. Air out the sandals after each use.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean of mud or debris, which can impair traction. If the issue persists on extremely smooth, wet surfaces, exercise caution as with any footwear.
Material feels stiff initially.
The synthetic textile and PU components may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they conform to your foot.
