Product Information
Full details
The North Face Skeena Platform Sandals are designed for adult females seeking elevated comfort and traction for warm-weather activities. Their key benefit lies in the combination of a thicker platform midsole and adjustable straps for a secure, comfortable fit. A potential caveat is the whole-size sizing, which may require careful consideration for those between sizes. These sandals feature a durable nylon upper, a cushioned EVA midsole, and a grippy rubber outsole with triangular lugs for stability.

FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for hiking?
The Skeena Platform Sandals are best suited for casual wear and light outdoor activities. The lugged outsole provides traction, but they are not designed for rugged, technical hiking trails.
How do I determine my size?
The North Face offers whole sizes. It is recommended to consult The North Face size chart for accurate measurements. If you typically wear a half size, you may need to consider sizing up for a comfortable fit.
Can these sandals be worn in water?
The materials used are water-friendly, and the sandals can be worn near water or rinsed if they get wet. However, ensure they are dried thoroughly afterward.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from 100% nylon webbing.
How do the adjustable straps work?
The sandals feature adjustable straps at the front and back, typically secured with hook-and-loop fasteners, allowing you to customize the fit around your foot and ankle.
What is the weight of the sandals?
The approximate weight for a half pair is 146g, contributing to their lightweight feel.
Can the platform height cause instability?
The platform midsole, combined with a lugged outsole, is designed to provide stability. However, as with any platform footwear, take care when navigating uneven terrain.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel too loose or too tight
Utilize the adjustable front and back straps to find your optimal fit. Ensure the hook-and-loop closures are securely fastened.
Slipping occurs on wet surfaces
While the outsole offers good traction, exercise caution on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. The lugged design is intended for general grip, not specialized wet-surface performance.
Discomfort after extended wear
Ensure the straps are adjusted for comfort and not digging into your skin. Verify you have selected the correct size by consulting the size chart.
