FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The ALTASWIM 3 sandals feature adjustable straps which can help accommodate different widths. However, they may not be ideal for exceptionally wide feet. It's recommended to try them on if possible or refer to sizing charts carefully.
Can my child wear these with socks?
While designed to be worn barefoot, they can be worn with thin socks if preferred. However, wearing socks may affect the secure fit provided by the adjustable straps.
How do I determine the correct size?
Measure your child's foot from heel to the longest toe and compare it with the brand's sizing chart. Consider that children's feet grow, and ensure there is a little room for growth, but not so much that the sandal becomes unsafe.
Are these sandals waterproof?
The EVA material is water-friendly and quick-drying, making them suitable for water. However, they are not designed to be fully waterproof; water can enter through the straps and openings.
What is the primary material of these sandals?
The primary material for the upper is quick-drying EVA, and they feature a textile sockliner and a synthetic outsole.
Can these sandals be used for hiking?
These sandals are best suited for light activities, water play, and casual wear. They do not offer the support or protection required for rugged hiking trails.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the two hook-and-loop straps to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure the heel strap is positioned correctly.
Material has an odor after getting wet.
Rinse the sandals thoroughly with fresh water and allow them to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Avoid prolonged exposure to stagnant water.
Difficulty adjusting straps.
Ensure the hook-and-loop material is clean and free from debris. If the straps are stiff, try flexing them gently.
Sole appears worn quickly.
These sandals are designed for light to moderate activity. For very rough terrain or prolonged, high-impact play, consider more robust footwear.
