Full details

Its key benefit is the blend of beachside inspiration with adjustable comfort, making it an effortless addition to any warm-weather outfit. A potential caveat is that the faux leather material may require specific care to maintain its appearance.

It offers a modest heel height with a comfortable platform.

FAQs

Are the decorative buckles functional?

The decorative metal buckles on the wide straps are for aesthetic purposes and do not adjust the fit. Only the slingback strap is adjustable.

What is the heel height and platform height?

The sandal features a 1 1/4 inch cork-textured platform and a 1 1/2 inch heel.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made of faux leather.

How do I clean the cork-textured platform?

Wipe the cork-textured platform gently with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking or using harsh chemicals.

Is this sandal suitable for wide feet?

While the wide straps offer some coverage, the main adjustment comes from the slingback strap. It may be suitable for individuals who can adjust the slingback for a comfortable fit, but it is not specifically designed for wide feet.

What is the outsole made of?

The outsole is made of TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) for traction and durability.

Can I wear these sandals in wet conditions?

While the TPR outsole provides some grip, the faux leather upper and cork platform are best kept dry. They are suitable for casual wear but not recommended for prolonged exposure to water.

Troubleshooting

Slingback strap feels too loose or too tight.

Adjust the buckle on the slingback strap to find a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure the strap is threaded correctly through the buckle.

Faux leather appears scuffed or dirty.

Gently wipe the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution and follow with a clean damp cloth. Always dry thoroughly.

Discomfort from the platform edge.

Ensure the sandal is the correct size. If discomfort persists, consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow your feet to adjust to the platform height.
