FAQs

What is the main benefit of the OrthoLite® footbed?

The OrthoLite® footbed promotes moisture transport to help keep your feet dry and provides long-term cushioning for comfort.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Adjust the buckle strap to secure the sandal snugly on your foot. Consult the Timberland sizing chart for accurate UK sizing.

Are these sandals suitable for hiking?

These sandals are primarily designed for casual wear. While they offer good comfort for walking, they may not provide the necessary support or protection for rugged hiking trails.

How often should I condition the leather?

Conditioning frequency depends on usage and climate. A general guideline is every 3-6 months, or whenever the leather appears dry.

What does 'Leather Working Group certified' mean?

It means that by purchasing this product, you are supporting tanneries that adhere to environmental best practices and responsible leather production.

Can I wear these sandals in the water?

While the leather can handle light splashes, it is not recommended to submerge these sandals in water as it can damage the leather and affect the footbed's integrity.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or stiff

Apply a quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and flexibility.

Buckle strap is difficult to adjust

Ensure the buckle prong is correctly aligned with the holes. If sticky, a very small amount of lubricant might help, but test in an inconspicuous area first.

Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces

The outsole provides traction, but like most footwear, caution is advised on extremely slick or wet surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris.

Care:
