FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking on pavement?
While they are comfortable enough for light walking, the specialized outsole is designed for boat decks; constant use on abrasive pavement will lead to premature wear of the grip features.
Do I need to wear socks with these?
They can be worn with or without socks, though thin, moisture-wicking synthetic socks are recommended for optimal comfort and breathability.
Are these waterproof?
They are designed to be quick-drying and breathable; they are not fully waterproof, so they will let water in if submerged.
How do I determine the correct size?
The shoes follow standard UK sizing for adults. If you are between sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size to accommodate movement.
Can the insoles be removed?
Yes, the insoles are removable, which helps with cleaning and allows you to insert custom orthotics if required.
How often should I rinse them after sailing?
It is best practice to rinse them with fresh water after every use in a saltwater environment to prevent salt buildup.
Troubleshooting
Slipping on very slick or oily surfaces
Clean the outsole with warm soapy water to remove debris or oil buildup that may be clogging the siping channels.
Shoes holding onto moisture
Ensure they are stored in an open, airy environment; remove the insoles to facilitate faster drying of the footbed.
General odor after heavy use
Use a specialized sneaker deodorizer or wash the insoles separately with mild detergent and allow them to fully dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Helly Hansen Crew Low Sailing Shoes maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Fit: The shoes are sized for standard adult feet; ensure they are snug but not restricting to allow for natural foot swelling during active days.
- Cleaning: Rinse with fresh water after exposure to saltwater to prevent salt crystallization, which can degrade the materials. Use a soft brush for stubborn dirt.
- Drying: Always air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, as extreme heat can warp the specialized rubber compounds.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods to preserve the integrity of the breathable fabrics.
