FAQs
Are these suitable for hiking?
Yes, the Trek Slip-On offers excellent traction and is rinseable, making them suitable for light to moderate hiking, especially in wet conditions.
Can I wear these with socks?
While designed to be worn without socks for optimal water drainage and quick drying, they can be worn with thin socks if preferred.
How do I clean them if they get very dirty?
For stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water with a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and air dry.
Are they waterproof?
They are water-resistant and designed to be rinsed. They are not fully waterproof, but the drainage holes allow water to escape quickly.
What is the main advantage of the one-piece construction?
The one-piece injected construction makes them incredibly durable, collapsible for easy packing, and simple to rinse clean.
How does the traction compare to traditional Vans?
The oversized reverse waffle sole provides significantly enhanced traction compared to standard Vans waffle soles, especially in challenging conditions.
Troubleshooting
Footwear feels stiff or uncomfortable initially.
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the material to break in and conform to your foot shape.
Water or debris still present after rinsing.
Ensure all drainage holes are clear. Use a soft brush to dislodge any stuck particles. Re-rinse thoroughly.
Slipping occurs despite the sole design.
Ensure the sole and the surface you are walking on are clean and free of excessive moisture or contaminants. Check if the footwear is the correct size.
