FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for all-day walking?
Yes, the anatomical cork-latex footbed is designed specifically for long-term comfort and foot health.
Can I get these sandals wet?
No, it is recommended to keep them away from water, as excessive moisture can degrade the cork and leather components.
How do I adjust the strap?
Use the large golden metal buckle to adjust the strap tension to match the height and volume of your instep.
Will the leather stretch?
The leather will soften and conform to your foot over time, but it should not stretch excessively if kept clean and conditioned.
Are these designed for wide feet?
The Gizeh Big Buckle series generally features a design optimized for narrower to medium foot profiles.
What is the material of the sole?
The sole is made from EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate), which is lightweight, flexible, and shock-absorbent.
Troubleshooting
Stiffness when first worn
The cork-latex footbed needs time to react to body heat and pressure. Wear them for 1-2 hours a day until the footbed contours to your foot.
Leather looks dull
Use a specialized leather conditioner or a nubuck brush to restore the natural oils and maintain the texture of the oiled leather.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your sandals last, avoid prolonged exposure to direct heat or moisture. If they get wet, air-dry them slowly away from heat sources to prevent the cork from drying out. The leather upper can be cleaned with a soft brush, and the footbed can be wiped down with a damp cloth if necessary. Because the Gizeh Big Buckle is tailored for narrower feet, ensure the buckle is set to a position that secures the foot without pinching. Regularly check the condition of the EVA sole and the tightness of the buckle hardware.
