The key benefit is the molded footbed combined with a bio-based EVA material for all-day wear, suitable for both wet and dry conditions.

Troubleshooting
Slides feel too tight or too loose.
Due to the nature of the molded design, adjustments are limited. Consider trying a different size if available. Ensure the foot is positioned correctly within the molded footbed.
Material has become stiff or discolored.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or high heat. Clean gently with a damp cloth and allow to air dry. If discoloration is significant, it may be permanent.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
While designed for grip, extremely smooth or wet surfaces may reduce traction. Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. For maximum grip, avoid walking on highly polished or wet floors at high speed.
