Karrimor Antibes Sandals - Brown - UK 13

While the sandals can be hand washed, they are not specifically designed for prolonged submersion or heavy water sports. They are best suited for light exposure, such as shallow stream crossings during a hike, rather than swimming or intense water activities.

The heel strap is designed to be removable for convenience, allowing conversion to a slip-on style. You can remove it whenever you prefer. Just ensure you store it safely if you plan to reattach it later.

These sandals are ideal for daily adventures, light hikes, and everyday errands. They perform well on paved paths, groomed trails, and general outdoor exploration. They are not recommended for rugged, technical, or highly uneven terrains.

This specific variant is UK size 13. Karrimor sizes generally run true to standard UK adult shoe sizes. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit, especially considering the adjustable straps allow for fine-tuning.

The frequency of cleaning depends on your usage. If worn daily or on dusty trails, clean them as needed with a soft damp cloth. A more thorough hand wash is recommended periodically to keep them fresh and extend their lifespan.

The padded straps are designed for comfort and have a textured inner to help with breathability and friction reduction. While any footwear can contribute to sweating in hot conditions, the open design of the sandal itself allows for good airflow, generally minimizing excessive sweating compared to closed-toe shoes.

Adjust the four hook and loop fasteners. Ensure each strap is set to provide a snug yet comfortable fit. Re-test by walking a short distance and fine-tune as needed.

Tighten all four hook and loop fasteners, particularly the ankle and forefoot straps, to ensure your foot is securely held in place. If the heel strap is removed, consider reattaching it for added stability.

Re-adjust all straps to relieve pressure points. Ensure no straps are overtightened. The padded straps with textured inner are designed for comfort, but a break-in period might be needed for new sandals. Check for any small debris under the straps or footbed.

Hand wash the sandals with mild soap and water, focusing on the footbed and straps. Allow them to air dry completely. Ensure they are fully dry before storage to prevent odor buildup.
