FAQs
Are the Keen Uneek Sandals suitable for hiking?
While they offer good grip and support for light trails and camp use, they are primarily designed as versatile sandals for casual wear and water activities. For serious hiking, a dedicated hiking shoe or boot is recommended.
Can I wear socks with the Keen Uneek Sandals?
Yes, you can wear socks with them, though they are often worn sockless for maximum breathability and to allow the footbed to conform to your foot. If wearing socks, consider thin, moisture-wicking options.
How do I adjust the fit of the laces?
The sandals feature a quick-lace system. To tighten, pull the lace lock upwards. To loosen, press the release button on the lace lock and slide it downwards.
Are these sandals waterproof?
The materials used are water-resistant, and the open design allows for quick drainage. However, they are not fully waterproof and your feet will get wet if submerged. They are designed to dry quickly.
What is the best way to clean the cords?
Hand wash with cold water and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and let them air dry. Avoid direct heat, as it can damage the materials.
What makes the UNEEK design unique?
The UNEEK design features a two-cord construction that acts like a suspension system for your foot. The free-moving cords allow the sandal to move and adapt to the shape and motion of your foot, offering both freedom and a secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Sandal feels too loose or too tight
Adjust the quick-lace capture system. Loosen the laces by pressing the toggle and sliding it down, then retighten by pulling the toggle upwards until a secure, comfortable fit is achieved.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the soles are clean and free from mud or debris. The razor-siping is designed for grip, but heavy buildup can reduce its effectiveness. For extremely slick surfaces, exercise caution.
Straps causing discomfort or chafing
Verify the lace system is adjusted correctly so the cords lie flat and evenly against the foot. If new, allow a short break-in period as the cords conform to your foot shape.
Deodorizing the sandals
If odor becomes an issue, wash with mild soap and water, rinse thoroughly, and air dry. For persistent odors, consider using a specialized footwear deodorizer spray.
