FAQs
Are these sliders waterproof?
While the faux leather material is water-resistant, it is not designed to be submerged in water. It is best to avoid heavy rain or pool immersion to maintain the longevity of the materials.
Do these provide arch support?
These are flat-soled sandals and do not feature specialized ergonomic arch support. They are best suited for short-duration wear.
What is the best way to clean the plaited straps?
Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth to gently dislodge any dirt trapped between the plaited sections.
Are these true to size?
The sandals are designed to standard UK sizing. If you typically sit between sizes, it is recommended to check your measurement against a standard size guide.
Can I wear these for long walks?
Because of their flat design, they are not intended for heavy-duty or long-distance walking and may cause foot fatigue if worn for hours on end.
Troubleshooting
Strap feels too tight
Faux leather can be stiff initially. Wear them for short periods around the house with socks to gently stretch the material before extended outdoor use.
Surface shows scuff marks
Gently clean the affected area with a soft cloth dipped in a mixture of mild soap and water, then pat dry immediately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These sliders require no setup; simply slip your foot into the strap and ensure the heel is positioned comfortably on the footbed. To keep your silver faux leather sliders looking their best, wipe them down with a soft, damp cloth after wear to remove dust or salt residue. Avoid submerging them in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may damage the synthetic finish. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the material from cracking or fading over time.
