Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your sandals requires only a quick adjustment of the strap to your preferred tightness. Compatibility is broad, as the red colorway serves as a versatile accent for most casual summer wardrobes. To care for your sandals, simply wipe them down with a damp cloth if they become soiled. If they are exposed to saltwater or mud, rinse them with mild soap and fresh water, then air dry them away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the EVA material.
