FAQs

Are these sandals suitable for hiking?

These sandals are designed for casual wear and light activities. They are not recommended for strenuous hiking due to their flat design and lack of ankle support.

How do I adjust the buckle for the best fit?

The buckle functions like a traditional strap buckle. Slide the buckle prong through the desired hole in the strap to tighten or loosen the fit around your ankle. Ensure it is snug but not constricting.

Can I wear these sandals in water?

While the materials are durable, prolonged exposure to water is not recommended for the leather. They are suitable for casual, dry conditions or very light splashes, but should be dried thoroughly if they get wet.

What does 'Leather Working Group certified tanneries' mean?

This certification indicates that the leather used in the sandal comes from tanneries that meet high environmental standards, focusing on responsible leather manufacturing processes.

How do I clean the OrthoLite® footbed?

Gently clean the footbed with a damp cloth and a mild soap if necessary. Allow it to air dry completely away from direct heat.

What is the primary benefit of the OrthoLite® footbed?

The OrthoLite® footbed provides excellent long-term cushioning for comfort and actively wicks away moisture to help keep your feet dry.

How do I choose the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Timberland. The UK size 8 is indicated for this specific product. Ensure your heel is within the backstrap for a secure fit.

Troubleshooting

Sandal feels stiff initially

This is common with premium leather. Wear the sandals for short periods indoors to break them in. The leather will soften and mold to your foot over time.

Leather shows scuffs or marks

Use a specialized leather conditioner or cleaner suitable for the type of leather. For minor scuffs, a soft brush or eraser might help. Always test products on an inconspicuous area first.

Footbed feels slippery after getting wet

This can happen due to the moisture-wicking properties. Allow the footbed to air dry completely. The grip should return once dry.

Care Instructions:

  1. Leather Care: Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or to restore shine, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for nubuck or full-grain leather.
  2. Footbed Care: The OrthoLite® footbed can be spot cleaned with mild soap and water. Ensure it dries naturally away from direct heat.
  3. Outsole Care: Wipe the rubber outsole clean with a damp cloth.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box to protect from dust and moisture. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade the leather.
