Product Information
Full details
The North Face Base Camp III slides are designed for adult men seeking a blend of comfort and convenience for casual, warm-weather wear. These slides offer a signature lightweight feel thanks to superfoam cushioning, making them an excellent choice for poolside relaxation or post-workout recovery; however, their synthetic material may not provide the breathability of fabric-lined alternatives in extremely humid conditions.

FAQs
Are these slides waterproof?
Yes, they are constructed from 100% synthetic materials, making them fully waterproof and ideal for the pool or shower.
Do they provide arch support?
The footbed is moulded to follow the natural contours of the foot, providing basic ergonomic support.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash them, as the agitation can damage the foam structure. Hand wash with soap and water instead.
Do these fit true to size?
The Base Camp III generally fits true to size, though if you prefer a looser fit or have wider feet, you may want to consider sizing up.
Can I wear these for long walks?
While they are comfortable for casual use, they are designed as slides and do not offer the ankle support necessary for long-distance walking.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels slippery when wet
Wipe the footbed with a clean, dry cloth to remove excess moisture and ensure better friction.
Foam feels stiff or hard
Ensure the slides have been stored at room temperature, as EVA foam can stiffen in cold conditions.
Build up of dirt on the strap
Use a damp cloth with gentle soap to wipe down the synthetic surface; do not use abrasive sponges.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These slides arrive ready to wear right out of the box with no break-in period required. To maintain the life of your footwear, rinse them with fresh water after exposure to chlorine or salt water to prevent mineral buildup on the synthetic strap. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and a soft brush, then air dry in a shaded area. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme heat sources, as this can cause the EVA foam to deform or lose its cushioning properties over time.
