FAQs
What is the main benefit of the Contour Cushion footbed?
The Contour Cushion footbed is designed to offer superior underfoot comfort and support, making the sandals suitable for all-day wear.
How do I ensure the best fit with the adjustable ankle strap?
Loosen the strap completely, position your foot in the sandal, and then tighten the strap through the buckle until it feels secure but not constrictive. The eyelet hardware provides multiple points for adjustment.
What type of material is the outsole made from?
The outsole is made from Clarks C360 EVA, which is known for being lightweight and durable.
Can these sandals be worn in wet conditions?
While the EVA outsole offers some protection, the leather upper is not waterproof. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally.
How should I clean the black leather upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For more thorough cleaning or to restore shine, use a black leather conditioner following product instructions.
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The adjustable ankle strap offers some flexibility. However, if you have significantly wide feet, it's recommended to try them on to ensure comfort, as the primary width is determined by the sandal's last.
What is the purpose of the statement eyelet hardware?
The eyelet hardware and buckles are design features that add a modern, premium aesthetic to the sandal, enhancing its overall style.
Troubleshooting
Strap is difficult to adjust
Ensure the buckle is not overly strained. Gently work the strap through the buckle until it moves smoothly. If the buckle is stiff, a small amount of leather conditioner around the buckle area might help.
Sandal feels slightly stiff on first wear
This is normal for new leather products. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot. The Contour Cushion footbed will also adapt over time.
Leather shows water marks
Allow the sandals to air dry completely. Once dry, use a leather conditioner specifically designed for black leather to restore the color and suppleness.
