Does the metallic finish wear off easily?
The finish is durable for casual use, though excessive scuffing against hard surfaces may show wear over time.
Is the heel height comfortable for walking all day?
Yes, the low-profile wedge is designed for comfort and provides a stable base for extended walking.
Are these made from real leather?
No, this model is made from vegan-friendly synthetic materials and microfiber.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel too tight or cause friction
Adjust the sling back closure to a looser setting and wear the sandals with socks for short periods at home to gently stretch the material.
Footbed feels slippery after prolonged wear
Wipe the footbed with a damp, soapy cloth to remove natural oils or debris and allow it to air dry completely.
Minor dirt buildup in die-cut details
Use a soft-bristled brush, such as a clean, dry toothbrush, to gently clear dust or debris from the decorative cutouts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Skechers sandals last through the season, simple maintenance is key. Since these sandals feature synthetic and microfiber components, you can keep them clean by wiping the upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the sandals in water, as this can damage the cork veneer and adhesive components. If the sandals get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators. For the best fit, adjust the sling back closure while sitting to ensure the heel strap rests comfortably without putting excessive pressure on the Achilles tendon. If you are between sizes or have wider feet, the elastic gore strap provides some extra room, but it is recommended to wear them around the house for short periods first to ensure the straps do not cause friction.
