Timberland - Calista Bay Backstrap Sandal - Red - Size: 3.5

This designation indicates leather sourced and processed to meet Timberland's standards for durability, quality, and environmental responsibility, often including Leather Working Group certification.

The buckle on the backstrap allows you to loosen or tighten the fit around your heel. Find a snug but comfortable position where the sandal feels secure without pinching.

While the leather can handle light moisture, these sandals are not designed for submersion in water. Prolonged exposure to water can damage the leather and affect the shoe's structure.

The EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate) footbed is a lightweight, flexible material used to provide cushioning and shock absorption, enhancing comfort during wear.

Gently use a slightly damp cloth to wipe the lining. Avoid soaking the material. For tougher spots, a very mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.

These sandals are designed for casual wear and light activities. They do not provide the support or protection required for strenuous hiking.

It means that the leather used in these sandals comes from tanneries that have been audited and certified by the Leather Working Group for their environmental practices, including energy use, water consumption, and waste management.

Wear the sandals around the house for short periods to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot.

Ensure the strap is threaded correctly through the buckle. If the buckle is stiff, try gently flexing it.

Use a suitable leather conditioner or polish to buff out minor scuffs. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

While designed for casual wear, be cautious on very wet or smooth surfaces as the sole may offer reduced traction.
