FAQs
What is the 'barefoot' concept in these sandals?
The 'barefoot' concept means the sandals are designed to mimic the feeling of being barefoot. They have a flexible sole, a wide toe box, and a flat footbed to allow natural foot movement and development, enabling the foot to adapt to different walking surfaces.
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
It is recommended to measure your child's foot from heel to the tip of their longest toe and compare it with the provided sizing chart. Ensure there is a small amount of growing room but not so much that the sandal becomes a tripping hazard.
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The design generally allows for natural foot splay, which can accommodate a range of foot widths. However, for very wide feet, it's advisable to check specific measurements or consult customer reviews.
Can these sandals be worn in water?
While the materials are generally durable and easy to clean, they are not specifically designed as water shoes. They can withstand light splashes, but prolonged immersion may not be recommended.
How often should I clean the sandals?
Clean the sandals as needed, typically after significant wear or when they appear dirty. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth is usually sufficient.
What is the main benefit of the Igor Lona V design?
The primary benefit is supporting natural foot development through a flexible, unrestrictive design that allows children's feet and ankles to move and adapt naturally.
Troubleshooting
Sandal feels too tight or loose.
Check the UK size against your child's foot measurement. Ensure the sandal is fastened correctly. Refer to the sizing chart for accurate fitting.
Material seems stiff after cleaning.
Ensure the sandals are air-dried naturally and not exposed to direct heat. Gentle manipulation of the material may help restore flexibility.
Child seems uncomfortable walking.
Verify the size and fit. The 'barefoot' concept requires some adjustment; ensure the child is not restricted and can feel the ground as intended.
