FAQs
Are these sandals waterproof?
These sandals are water-friendly and designed to dry quickly. However, they are not fully waterproof and are best suited for activities where they might get splashed or wet, rather than prolonged submersion.
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
Measure your child's foot from the heel to the tip of their longest toe. Compare this measurement to the size chart provided by Teva, or consult the UK sizing indicated. It is recommended to add a small amount of growing room, but avoid sizing up too much to ensure a secure fit.
What is the heel height of these sandals?
The heel height is low, ranging between 2.5-4.9cm, providing a comfortable and stable base for children.
Can these sandals be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these sandals. Hand washing with mild soap and water, followed by air drying, is the best method for cleaning and preserving the materials.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is constructed from a combination of rubber and EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate) for durability, cushioning, and grip.
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
These sandals are designed with a regular width. If your child has particularly wide feet, the adjustable straps may offer some flexibility, but it's advisable to check reviews or try them on if possible.
What is the weight of the sandals?
The item weight is approximately 500 grams, making them relatively lightweight for comfortable wear.
Troubleshooting
Straps not adhering well
Ensure the touch-fasten surfaces are clean and free of dirt, sand, or lint. Wipe them gently with a slightly damp cloth and allow to dry completely. Avoid using fabric softener on the straps.
Sandal feels too loose or too tight
Re-adjust the touch-fasten straps. The heel strap should be secure around the ankle, and the forefoot strap should provide a snug fit across the top of the foot without pinching.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
While designed for good traction, performance on extremely slick surfaces may be reduced. Clean the outsole tread to remove any embedded debris that could compromise grip. These sandals are not intended for water sports requiring specialized grip.
Discomfort after wearing
Check the sizing to ensure the sandal is the correct length and width for your child's foot. Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly and not rubbing in any sensitive areas. Allow a short break-in period if the sandals are brand new.
