FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for hiking?

The Keen Uneek LEA is designed for casual wear and light outdoor activities on even terrain. They do not offer the ankle support or rugged protection needed for serious hiking.

How do I clean the cord part of the shoes?

The bungee cords can typically be cleaned with mild soap and water. Use a brush to gently scrub and rinse thoroughly. Allow to air dry.

What is the main difference between these and regular sandals?

The Uneek LEA features a unique two-cord construction that adapts to the foot, offering a more secure and flexible fit than traditional strap sandals, combined with leather accents for a more refined look.

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

While the materials can handle some moisture, they are not waterproof. The open design means your feet will get wet if submerged or exposed to heavy rain. Allow them to air dry completely afterwards.

What is the warranty period for Keen products?

Keen generally offers a one-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the official Keen website or your point of purchase for specific warranty details.

Is this product available in other sizes or colors?

Yes, the Keen Uneek series is available in various sizes and color combinations. Please check the product catalog or retailer for available options.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Adjust the bungee cord lacing system. Loosen by pulling the toggle, tighten by pulling the cord ends. Ensure you have the correct size; consult the sizing chart if unsure.

Leather appears dry or stiff.

Apply a quality leather conditioner following the product's instructions. This will help restore moisture and flexibility.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

Ensure the soles are clean from debris. While designed for grip, performance can vary on wet or exceptionally smooth surfaces. Use with caution in such conditions.

Faint odor develops.

Allow the shoes to air out completely between wears. Sprinkle baking soda inside overnight to absorb odors, then shake out before wearing.
