FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for walking long distances?
The sandals feature cushioned insoles for comfort, making them suitable for moderate walking. However, for very long distances or strenuous activities, specialized walking or running shoes might offer more support and cushioning.
Can I wear these sandals in water, like at the beach or pool?
While the material can dry, they are not designed as water shoes. Prolonged exposure to water and submersion, especially in chlorinated or salt water, could affect the materials and lifespan of the sandal. They are best suited for casual dry wear.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the Skechers sizing chart for accurate measurements. The sandal should fit snugly but comfortably, with your heel fitting into the Heel Pillow® area without spilling over.
Is the knit upper durable?
The knit upper is designed to be flexible and breathable. While reasonably durable for casual wear, it can be susceptible to snags or tears if caught on sharp objects. Avoid abrasive surfaces and rough handling.
What does 'vegan' mean in the product description?
It means the sandal is constructed entirely without any animal-derived materials or by-products.
How often should I wash these sandals?
Wash them as needed when they appear dirty or lose their freshness. Over-washing might accelerate wear, so spot cleaning for minor issues is often sufficient.
Can I use bleach to clean them?
No, bleach is not recommended as it can damage the fabric and color of the knit upper and other components.
Troubleshooting
Sandal feels too tight or loose
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The knit upper will offer some flexibility, but proper sizing is crucial for comfort. If slightly loose, consider thicker socks if wearing for a brief period, otherwise, a size exchange may be necessary.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is aligned correctly with your heel. Sometimes, a slight adjustment or wearing thinner socks can help. The Hands Free Slip-ins® feature is designed for ease, so if significant force is required, re-check the sizing and fit.
Knit upper shows dirt or discoloration
Follow the machine washing instructions using cold water and a gentle cycle. For localized dirt, try spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing.
Footbed feels less cushioned over time
While Luxe Foam® is designed for durability, cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the sandals if comfort is significantly impacted after prolonged wear.
