Product Information
Full details
The North Face Base Camp Slide III is designed for active adults who need a reliable, comfortable transition shoe for everyday wear, whether at the gym, poolside, or relaxing at home. Its standout feature is the combination of a plush heathered fabric upper and a high-traction outsole that offers superior durability compared to standard foam slides; however, users should note that the slide is intended for casual use and lacks the arch support found in dedicated performance footwear.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these slides waterproof?
The outsole is water-resistant, but the heathered fabric upper will absorb water and may take time to dry.
Can I wear these for long walks?
These are intended for casual, short-term wear and do not provide the orthopaedic support necessary for long-distance walking.
How should I clean the fabric?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes or putting them in a washing machine.
Does this size fit true to size?
The UK 5 size generally fits standard sizing, though those with wider feet may find the fit more snug.
Can I wear these in the shower?
While the materials are durable, the fabric upper makes them less ideal for shower use compared to fully synthetic, non-porous slides.
Troubleshooting
Fabric upper feels stiff
Gently flex the strap by hand to loosen the fibers and wear them around the house for short intervals.
Outer sole picks up debris
Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth to remove dirt from the tread pattern to maintain optimal traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This product is ready to wear immediately out of the box with no break-in period required. To maintain the life of your slides, avoid keeping them in direct, high-intensity sunlight for extended periods, as this can degrade the materials. If the fabric upper becomes soiled, gently spot clean using a mild detergent and cool water. Allow the slides to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the fabric from shrinking or the adhesive from loosening. Ensure you verify your UK 5 sizing before purchase, as open-toe footwear sizing can feel different than enclosed trainers.
