Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Ahiga Slip-on is a versatile performance shoe designed for female sailors and outdoor enthusiasts who prioritize convenience and comfort. Featuring a quick-drying hydrophobic upper and a grippy, non-marking outsole, these shoes excel in wet deck environments or casual shore side walks. While they provide excellent traction and ease of use, they are specifically optimized for marine environments rather than intense hiking or technical mountain terrain.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
We recommend hand washing with mild soap and water to protect the integrity of the materials and the non-marking sole.
Can I wear these for swimming?
While they are quick-drying and water-friendly, they are designed as deck shoes, not dedicated water shoes for swimming or rocky seabed navigation.
How should I store them when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the rubber and textile materials from degrading.
Are these shoes true to size?
The Ahiga series is generally true to standard UK sizing, but the slip-on design is meant to offer a snug fit without being restrictive.
Will they leave scuffs on my boat deck?
No, these shoes are specifically engineered with non-marking outsoles to prevent scuffing on delicate deck surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Shoes are retaining water
Ensure they are placed in a well-ventilated area for drying. The hydrophobic treatment may wear off over time; consider applying a marine-safe water-repellent spray.
Soles losing grip
Check the outsole treads for trapped sand, debris, or dried salt. A quick rinse with fresh water should restore the original traction levels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No complex setup is required; the slip-on design is ready to wear immediately out of the box. To ensure the longevity of your Ahiga slip-ons, it is recommended to rinse them with fresh water after exposure to saltwater to prevent salt crystallization within the fibers. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or direct sunlight, which could compromise the textile bonds or rubber compounds. For cleaning, use mild soap and a soft brush; avoid machine washing or heavy detergents to preserve the specialized hydrophobic coating on the upper.
