FAQs
How do I clean the gold leather upper?
Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a leather cleaner specifically formulated for footwear, then apply a leather conditioner to keep it supple. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners.
Are these sandals suitable for wide or narrow feet?
These sandals are designed for a standard width. However, the elastic buckle straps offer significant adjustability, allowing you to customize the fit to some extent for varying foot shapes.
Can I wear these sandals in water or to the beach?
While the sandals are suitable for days out at the beach, the leather upper is not designed for prolonged immersion in water. It's best to avoid getting them excessively wet to protect the leather and prolong their lifespan.
What is the heel height of these sandals?
The Hotter Tourist II Sandals feature a comfortable heel height of 25mm (approximately 1 inch).
Are the insoles removable for custom orthotics?
The memory foam and microfibre padded insole is designed to mold to your foot and is integrated into the sandal's construction, meaning it is not intended to be removable for custom orthotics.
What materials are these sandals made from?
The sandals feature a premium leather upper, a textile lining, a microfibre padded insole over a stylish cork sole, and a durable rubber outsole.
Troubleshooting
My sandals feel too tight or too loose.
Utilize the elastic buckle straps to adjust the fit. Fully open the buckles, position your foot, and then gradually tighten each strap until a comfortable, secure fit is achieved. Remember, the elastic allows for a degree of stretch as you move.
The leather looks dull or dry.
Clean the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Once dry, apply a high-quality leather conditioner or protector designed for footwear to restore its luster and maintain its suppleness.
My feet feel uncomfortable after prolonged wear.
While designed for comfort, allow a short break-in period for the memory foam insole and leather upper to fully conform to your foot. Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly, neither too tight nor too loose, to prevent rubbing or pressure points. If discomfort persists, re-evaluate your size or consult the Hotter sizing guide.
The sandals make a squeaking noise when I walk.
This can sometimes be caused by trapped moisture or friction between materials. Ensure the sandals are completely dry. If the noise is from foot-to-insole friction, a light dusting of foot powder on the insole may help. If it's a structural squeak, check for any loose elements in the sole or contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Product Care
Proper care will help maintain the look and longevity of your Hotter Tourist II Sandals:
- Leather Upper: Gently wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt or dust. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner suitable for the gold finish. Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Lining (Textile): Spot clean the textile lining with a mild soap and damp cloth if necessary. Allow to air dry completely.
- Sole (Rubber & Cork): Wipe the rubber outsole and cork detailing with a damp cloth to remove any debris.
- Drying: If your sandals get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), which can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store your sandals in a cool, dry place, ideally away from direct sunlight, when not in use. This helps prevent fading and material degradation. Avoid crushing them to maintain their shape.
