Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Ahiga Slip-on is designed for active women who spend time in and around the water and require a reliable, versatile deck shoe. Its primary benefit is the combination of a high-traction, non-marking outsole with a quick-drying hydrophobic upper, ensuring comfort and stability on wet surfaces. One caveat is that as a dedicated deck-style shoe, it lacks the rugged tread depth of a hiking boot, meaning it is best suited for boat decks, docks, and casual coastal environments rather than uneven wilderness trails.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
We recommend hand washing with mild soap and water to preserve the integrity of the materials and the midsole foam.
Can I wear these for hiking?
These are primarily deck shoes. While they are comfortable, they lack the lateral support and deep tread needed for rugged hiking trails.
Do they provide arch support?
The shoes feature an ergonomic midsole designed to provide basic support suitable for casual wear and deck activities.
Is the sole truly non-marking?
Yes, the rubber compound is specifically formulated to be non-marking, making it safe for all types of boat decks.
How should I clean saltwater off the shoes?
Rinse the shoes thoroughly with fresh tap water and allow them to air dry in a shaded area.
Do they run true to size?
The Ahiga series typically follows standard sizing; however, since they are slip-ons, ensure you select your usual size for the most secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes are retaining water
Ensure they are stored in a well-ventilated area after use; avoid keeping them in a closed gym bag.
Slipping on very slick, non-deck surfaces
While the sole is designed for boat decks, extreme moss or oily surfaces may still be hazardous; exercise caution.
Outsole collecting debris
Use a soft brush and water to clear out the channels in the rubber outsole to maintain optimal traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are slip-on shoes, there is no setup required other than ensuring proper sizing. To maintain the life of your Ahiga shoes, rinse them with fresh water after exposure to saltwater to prevent salt crystallization, which can stiffen the fabric over time. If they become heavily soiled, hand wash them with a mild detergent and lukewarm water. Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or direct sunlight, which can warp the midsole or damage the synthetic upper. Storage should be in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.
