FAQs
How do I adjust the strap for the best fit?
Loosen the strap, position your foot comfortably, and then tighten the strap until it feels secure but not constrictive. Ensure the buckle or closure mechanism is firmly in place.
Are these slides suitable for hiking?
The Strider Slides feature durable outsoles with good grip, making them suitable for light trails and varied terrain. However, they are not designed as dedicated hiking boots and may lack the ankle support for more challenging hikes.
What is the benefit of the jute fibres in the outsole?
The biodegradable jute fibres reinforce the recycled rubber outsole, enhancing its durability and integrity, ensuring the product lasts longer while promoting sustainability.
How does the 'Plant a Tree' initiative work?
Through a partnership with VERDN, each purchase of Strider slides results in one mangrove tree being planted in Africa. This initiative supports local economies and environmental restoration.
Can I wear these slides in water?
The slides can be worn near water, and the materials are generally water-resistant. However, prolonged submersion is not recommended, and they should be allowed to air dry thoroughly afterwards.
What is the expected lifespan of the slides?
With proper care, the Gumbies Strider Slides are designed for durability. The robust materials and construction contribute to a long lifespan for regular use.
Do these slides offer arch support?
The slides feature a contoured footbed designed to follow the natural shape of the foot for support. However, individuals requiring significant or specific arch support may need to consider aftermarket insoles.
Troubleshooting
Strap does not stay adjusted
Ensure the buckle or closure mechanism is fully engaged. Check for any debris obstructing the strap adjustment.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While designed for grip, extreme wet conditions can reduce traction. Dry the soles and the surface if possible. Ensure the strap is adjusted for a snug fit.
Discomfort after extended wear
Verify the strap is adjusted for optimal comfort and not too tight or loose. Allow your feet time to adapt to the contoured footbed if new to this style of footwear.
Material appears worn
Wipe gently with a damp cloth. Minor scuffs can be expected with regular use. For significant wear, consult care instructions for appropriate cleaning.
