FAQs
Are these sandals true to size?
Skechers generally aims for a true-to-size fit. These sandals are a UK size 5.5. We recommend referring to Skechers' official size guide if you are unsure or between sizes, as individual foot shapes can vary.
How do I clean my BOBS Sun Ray Sandals?
These sandals are machine washable. For best results, place them in a laundry bag, wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent, and then air dry them completely away from direct heat.
Are these sandals suitable for walking long distances?
The Plush Foam footbed provides excellent comfort for casual daily wear and light walking. However, for long-distance walking or hiking, we recommend footwear with more structured arch support and outsole traction designed for such activities.
What does 'vegan' mean for these sandals?
Being 'vegan' means these sandals are constructed entirely without animal products or by-products, including glues and dyes. They are made using synthetic materials, making them an ethical choice.
Can I wear these sandals in water, like at a pool or beach?
While the sandals are machine washable and can get wet, they are not specifically designed as water shoes. Prolonged exposure to chlorinated or saltwater might affect their longevity. Always allow them to air dry thoroughly if they get wet.
Do these sandals offer arch support?
The Plush Foam footbed provides cushioning and a degree of contoured comfort. While they offer more support than a flat sandal, specific clinical arch support levels are not specified. Individuals requiring significant arch support may want to consider this.
Troubleshooting
Sandal feels too loose or too tight.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size 5.5. If the fit feels off, double-check your foot measurement against standard sizing guides. Sometimes a brief break-in period helps adjust to the fit. If discomfort persists, consider if a different size or style might be more suitable for your foot shape.
Sandals are losing their freshness or accumulating dirt.
Utilize the machine washable feature. Follow the care instructions outlined above: place in a laundry bag, wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent, then air dry completely. This will restore freshness.
Experiencing discomfort after extended wear.
While the Plush Foam provides comfort, extended wear without proper foot support can sometimes lead to fatigue. Ensure the sandals fit correctly and are not causing your foot to slide. For very long walks or standing, consider rotating with shoes that offer more structured support.
Footbed feels less plush over time.
The Plush Foam is designed for lasting comfort, but like all materials, it can compress over time with heavy use. Regular cleaning can help maintain its properties. If significant compression occurs, it might indicate the sandals are reaching the end of their useful life.

Care Instructions
One of the key benefits of your BOBS Sun Ray Sandals is their machine washable feature, making maintenance a breeze. Follow these steps to keep your sandals clean and fresh:
- Preparation: Remove any loose dirt or debris from the sandals by gently tapping them together or using a soft brush.
- Washing: Place the sandals in a laundry bag or pillowcase to protect them and your washing machine. Wash them on a gentle cycle with cold water.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Drying: Air dry only. Do not place the sandals in a dryer, as high heat can damage the materials and adhesives. Allow them to dry completely in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat.
- Avoid: Do not use strong cleaners, solvents, or submerge them in very hot water, as this can affect the Plush Foam and overall construction.
