FAQs
What is the heel height and platform height?
The sandals feature a 1.5-inch heel and a 1.25-inch platform, providing a subtle lift.
How do I adjust the fit of the sandals?
The fit can be adjusted using the side buckle closure on the strap.
What material are the sandals made of?
The upper is made of polyurethane (PU) faux leather, the sock is synthetic, and the sole is Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR). The platform is cork-wrapped.
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The sandals have a wide faux leather upper design, which may offer more room for some individuals, but the fit is ultimately determined by the adjustable buckle.
How should I clean the cork-wrapped platform?
Gently wipe the cork-wrapped platform with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking or using abrasive cleaners.
Can these sandals be worn for walking long distances?
While designed for comfort, the platform style and heel height make them best suited for moderate walking and casual outings rather than extensive trekking.
What are the decorative metal buckles for?
The decorative metal buckles are primarily for aesthetic appeal, adding to the sandal's chic design. The functional closure is the side buckle.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too tight or too loose
Adjust the side buckle closure to find a more secure and comfortable fit.
Discomfort from the platform height
If you're new to platform sandals, allow a brief break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially and gradually increase wear time as you adapt.
Faux leather scuff marks
For minor scuffs, try gently wiping with a soft, damp cloth. For more persistent marks, a specialized faux leather cleaner might be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
Ensure the TPR outsole is clean. If the issue persists, consider a non-slip sole gripper or pad, especially if walking on very wet or polished surfaces.
