FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The Solay sandals have a standard width. While the leather upper offers some flexibility, they may not be ideal for very wide feet without a break-in period.
Can I wear these sandals in the shower or pool?
The iQushion™ midsole is water-resistant, but the leather upper is not. It is best to avoid prolonged exposure to water to protect the leather.
How do I clean the glossy discs?
Wipe the glossy discs gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the finish.
What is the benefit of the APMA Seal of Acceptance?
This seal indicates that the American Podiatric Medical Association has evaluated the footwear and found it to be beneficial for foot health and promotes proper foot function.
Are these sandals suitable for hiking?
The Solay sandals have grip suited for country paths and light trails. They are not designed for strenuous hiking or technical terrain that requires specialized footwear.
How should I choose my size?
FitFlop offers standard UK adult sizes. Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer and consider your usual shoe size. These specific sandals are listed in UK size 9.
What is the main difference between Solay models?
While the core iQushion™ technology remains, different Solay models may vary in upper material, embellishments (like the glossy discs), and strap design.
Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness in leather upon first wear
This is normal for new leather. Wear the sandals for short periods initially to break them in. Applying a leather conditioner can also help soften the material.
Discomfort from the toe post
Ensure you have the correct size. If discomfort persists, the toe-post style may not be suitable for your foot shape. Consider trying a different FitFlop sandal style.
Reduced cushioning over time
The iQushion™ midsoles are designed for durability. If you notice a significant reduction in cushioning, ensure you are not exposing the sandals to excessive heat or harsh chemicals, which can degrade the EVA foam.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the grip is adequate for light trails, the sandals can become slippery on very wet or smooth surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.
