FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is typically made from Polyurethane (PU), often referred to as faux leather or faux suede, depending on the specific colorway.
How high is the heel and platform?
The sandal features a flat heel of approximately 1 inch and a platform of approximately 7/8 inch.
Is the ankle strap adjustable?
Yes, the ankle strap features a hook-and-loop closure, allowing for an adjustable and customizable fit.
Can these sandals be worn in water?
While the materials are water-resistant to some degree, they are not designed for submersion. It is best to avoid prolonged exposure to water and allow them to air dry thoroughly if they get wet.
What is the best way to clean the cork-like footbed?
Use a soft brush or a lightly damp cloth to clean the cork-inspired footbed. Allow it to air dry completely afterward.
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The adjustable strap provides some flexibility, but the overall fit depends on the width of the straps and the design of the sandal. It's recommended to try them on if possible for the best assessment of fit.
What kind of support does the footbed offer?
The footbed is cushioned and wrapped in a cork-like finish, offering moderate support and comfort for everyday wear.
Troubleshooting
Sandal feels too tight or loose.
Adjust the hook-and-loop ankle strap for a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure the toe thong is positioned correctly for comfort.
Footbed feels uncomfortable after initial wear.
Allow a short break-in period. Wear the sandals for brief periods initially and gradually increase the duration as the footbed conforms to your foot.
Strap does not adhere properly.
Ensure the hook-and-loop surfaces are clean and free from debris. Press firmly to secure the strap.
Material appears scuffed or dirty.
Gently clean the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher marks on faux leather, consult specific faux leather cleaning guides, but generally avoid harsh solvents.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the faux leather or faux suede upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the material.
- Cleaning the Footbed: For the cork-wrapped footbed, use a soft brush or a lightly damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Allow it to air dry completely.
- Drying: If the sandals become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as excessive heat can cause the material to crack or warp.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a dust bag or the original box to protect them from dust and prevent deformation.
