Troubleshooting

Foot slides out of the sandal easily.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. These slides are designed for a relaxed fit, but excessive slipping may indicate a size issue. You may consider a smaller size if available or ensure your feet are not excessively wet.

Outsole feels less grippy than expected.

Clean the traction outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be reducing grip. Ensure the surface you are walking on is also clean and appropriate for casual footwear.

Fabric upper appears dirty or stained.

Gently spot clean the heathered fabric upper using a mild soap solution and a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing. Allow to air dry completely.

Unpleasant odor developing.

Allow the slides to air out regularly after use, especially if they become damp. For persistent odors, consider using a footwear deodorizer or a baking soda sprinkle (ensure it's completely brushed off before wearing).
