FAQs

Are these slides suitable for the beach?

Yes, they are water-resistant and easy to rinse off, making them perfect for sandy environments.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is recommended to hand wash them with mild soap, as machine agitation and heat can damage the foam structure.

Do these slides offer arch support?

They feature a contoured footbed for comfort, but they do not provide medical-grade orthotic arch support.

Are they true to size?

They generally follow standard sizing; if you prefer a looser fit or plan to wear them with thick socks, you may consider sizing up.

Will the material fade in the sun?

While durable, prolonged direct exposure to UV light can eventually affect the color and foam integrity; store in the shade when not in use.

Troubleshooting

Slides feel slippery when wet

While water-resistant, the surface texture can become slick; wipe down the footbed with a dry towel after exposure to water.

Foam has developed minor indentations

The soft nature of superfoam means it will contour to your foot over time, which is normal. Ensure you are not storing heavy items on top of the slides.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These slides require no formal break-in period; simply slip them on and adjust to the fit. To ensure longevity, avoid exposing the EVA foam to extreme heat sources like direct sunlight in a hot car or high-temperature clothes dryers, as the material can warp. To clean, use a soft cloth with mild soap and cold water. Allow them to air dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area. They are fully water-resistant, making them compatible with wet environments like pools or showers.
