FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the KEEN Astoria West sandals are built on a women-specific foot form that is wider than the industry norm for improved comfort and fit.
How do I clean my KEEN Astoria West sandals?
They are machine washable on a gentle cycle with a small amount of detergent. Air dry them away from heat sources. For spot cleaning, use a damp sponge or soft cloth.
Can I wear these sandals in salt water?
While the quick-dry materials are water-ready, prolonged exposure to salt water is not recommended. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water after saltwater use and air dry to maintain material integrity.
What is the purpose of the stability shank?
The stability shank is integrated into the midsole to provide lightweight support and help maintain balance on uneven terrain.
Do these sandals offer good arch support?
Yes, they feature a molded foot arch designed to support the metatarsals and provide comfortable arch support during wear.
What material are the straps made from?
The straps are made from washable, quick-dry webbing derived from recycled P.E.T. polyester fibers.
Will these sandals leave marks on my floors?
No, the rubber outsole is non-marking, meaning it will not leave imprints when you walk indoors.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the lace-lock bungee system. Pull the laces to tighten and secure the toggle. For a more permanent adjustment, you can re-tie the bungee knot.
Discomfort in the arch area.
Ensure the sandals are correctly sized. The molded arch support is designed to fit most women's feet; break-in time may be needed. If discomfort persists, consider if the fit is suitable for your foot shape.
Poor traction on certain surfaces.
Ensure the AquaGrip rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. The siping is designed for wet surfaces; traction on extremely smooth or dry surfaces may vary.
Straps feel stiff after drying.
Allow the sandals to air dry completely away from direct heat. The webbing should regain flexibility once fully dry. Avoid machine drying.
