FAQs
Are the UGG Tasman Outpost shoes fully waterproof?
The upper features waterproof suede designed to keep feet dry from light elements, but they should not be submerged in deep water.
Can I wear these without socks?
Yes, the UGGplush lining is designed to be worn directly against the skin while providing warmth and moisture management.
How do I tighten the fit?
Pull the toggle toward the heel to tighten the elastic laces and press the button on the toggle to release the tension when putting them on or taking them off.
Are these slippers machine washable?
No, do not machine wash these slippers. Use hand-cleaning methods specifically for suede and wool materials.
Is the sole non-slip?
The Spider Rubber sole provides enhanced traction, though no sole is completely slip-proof on all surfaces.
Should I order my usual size?
The Tasman Outpost typically fits true to size for an adult male, so you should choose your standard footwear size.
Troubleshooting
Toggle is difficult to adjust
Ensure the lace path is free of debris and that the internal spring mechanism is not clogged; a quick wipe with a dry cloth usually clears minor obstructions.
Suede looks dull after use
Use a suede brush to lift the fibers and restore the texture of the material.
Interior lining feels damp
Allow the shoes to air out in a well-ventilated area for 24 hours to ensure the moisture-wicking wool releases trapped humidity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The shoes are ready to wear out of the box. Adjust the elastic toggle to your preferred tension upon first wearing to ensure the heel stays in place while walking.
Compatibility: These slippers are designed for adult males and fit true to size. They can be worn comfortably with or without socks due to the moisture-wicking nature of the wool lining.
Care Instructions:
- Suede Maintenance: Brush the surface gently with a suede-specific brush to remove loose dirt and maintain the nap.
- Moisture: If the shoes get heavily soaked, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp or crack the suede.
- Cleaning: Spot clean any stains with a mild suede cleaner and a soft cloth, following the manufacturer's instructions for the specific cleaner.
