FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The Gracie sandals have a standard width fit. While the straps offer some adjustability, they are best suited for those with average width feet. If you typically require wide-fit footwear, these may not be the ideal choice.
Can I wear these for walking long distances or hiking?
These sandals are designed for everyday comfort and walking on typical urban or paved surfaces. Their lightweight construction and cushioning are excellent for extended periods of standing or walking on comfortable ground. They are not intended for strenuous hiking or rough terrain.
How do I clean the Dynamicush™ sole?
The Dynamicush™ midsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid soaking the sandals or using harsh chemicals. Allow the soles to air dry completely.
What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?
The APMA Seal of Acceptance means that the footwear has been evaluated by experts in podiatric medicine and found to be beneficial for foot health, promoting proper alignment and movement.
Is the leather waterproof?
The leather used in the Gracie sandals is not waterproof. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material.
What is the return policy if the size is incorrect?
Please refer to the specific retailer's return policy for information on exchanges or returns due to incorrect sizing. It is advisable to check the size guide before purchasing.
Can these sandals be worn in water?
No, these leather sandals are not designed for water use. Prolonged exposure to water can damage the leather and affect the integrity of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too tight or too loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Refer to the FitFlop size chart for accurate measurements. Due to the strappy design, minor adjustments in fit may occur with wear, but significant tightness or looseness usually indicates an incorrect size.
Leather shows scuff marks or stains.
For minor scuffs, try a leather cleaner. For stains, consult a professional leather cleaning service. Regular wiping with a damp cloth can prevent dirt buildup.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
The light tread outsole is designed for flexible grip. Ensure the soles are clean. If slipping persists on very smooth or wet surfaces, consider using a specialized shoe grip product, though this is generally not necessary for normal use.
Discomfort after initial wear.
While designed for ergonomic support, some break-in period may be needed. Wear for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. If discomfort persists, ensure the correct size and width are selected.
