Full details
These Timberland Boys Perkins Row Backstrap Sandals in black are designed for young boys seeking durable and stylish footwear for all-season wear. Their key benefit is a combination of robust construction and a secure, comfortable fit suitable for active children. A potential caveat for some may be the synthetic leather and recycled PET lining, which, while eco-conscious, might differ in feel from natural leather.

FAQs
What materials are these sandals made from?
The upper is made from synthetic leather, and the lining is constructed with ReBOTL™ fabric, which contains 50% recycled PET plastic. The midsole is compression-moulded EVA, and the outsole is designed for grip.
How do I choose the correct size?
Refer to the UK sizing provided (e.g., UK 13). It is recommended to measure your child's foot and compare it with Timberland's sizing chart for the most accurate fit.
Are these sandals suitable for water activities?
While they are durable and can get wet, they are primarily designed for casual wear. They are not specialized water shoes but can withstand typical playground splashes and beach use. Ensure they are dried thoroughly after getting wet.
Can the backstrap be removed?
No, the backstrap is a fixed design feature intended to provide support and a secure fit. It is not removable.
How should I clean the inside of the sandals?
The ReBOTL™ fabric lining can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Allow the interior to air dry completely before wearing.
What is the benefit of the ReBOTL™ fabric lining?
The ReBOTL™ fabric lining is made using at least 50% recycled PET plastic, contributing to more sustainable manufacturing practices and reducing environmental impact.
Are these sandals good for wide feet?
The hook-and-loop closure allows for some adjustability. However, the overall fit is based on standard sizing. If your child has particularly wide feet, it's advisable to try them on if possible.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the hook-and-loop backstrap to find the most secure and comfortable fit. Ensure the strap is fully engaged.
Difficulty fastening the hook-and-loop strap.
Ensure the hook-and-loop surfaces are clean and free of lint or debris. Sometimes a stiff brush can help restore their grip.
Synthetic leather shows scuffs or marks.
Use a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe away scuffs. For persistent marks, a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for synthetic materials may be used.
Sandal is not drying properly after getting wet.
Remove excess water by patting with a towel. Stuff the sandals with paper towels or newspaper to absorb internal moisture and allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area.
