FAQs
Are these Karrimor Antibes sandals suitable for serious hiking or mountain trails?
No, these sandals are designed for 'light hikes' and daily adventures. For serious hiking or technical mountain trails, footwear with more robust support, toe protection, and sole grip would be more appropriate.
Can I wear these sandals in water, like at the beach or in a river?
While they can be hand-washed and may tolerate incidental splashes, they are not specifically advertised as water sandals with quick-drying properties. If they get wet, ensure you air dry them completely to prevent odors and material damage.
How do I convert the sandals to a slip-on style?
The heel strap is attached with hook and loop fasteners. Simply detach these fasteners from the side straps to remove the heel strap, converting the sandal into a convenient slip-on.
What is the best way to clean and care for my sandals?
You can clean them with a soft damp cloth or hand wash them with mild soap and lukewarm water. Always air dry them completely in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Do these sandals provide good arch support?
Info needed: The product description does not specifically detail the level of arch support. They are designed for general comfort during walking and light activities. If you require specific arch support, you may want to consult product specifications or try them on.
What sizing should I choose?
These sandals are available in standard UK adult men's sizes. It's generally recommended to choose your usual shoe size for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel too tight or too loose, causing discomfort or instability.
Adjust each of the four hook and loop fasteners individually. Loosen straps that feel too tight and tighten those that feel too loose until you achieve a comfortable, secure fit. Test the fit by walking around.
Foot is rubbing or developing hot spots.
Ensure the straps are not overtightened. Check for any small debris (like sand or pebbles) caught between your foot and the sandal. Allow for a short 'break-in' period, as new sandals sometimes need a few wears to conform to your foot.
The sandal feels unstable or my foot slides too much.
Tighten all adjustable straps, paying close attention to the straps over the instep and around the ankle/heel. If you have removed the heel strap, consider reattaching it for added stability, especially during more active use.
An unpleasant odor develops in the sandals.
Thoroughly hand wash the sandals using mild soap and lukewarm water, paying attention to footbed areas. Rinse completely to remove all soap residue. Allow them to air dry fully in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
Sandal appears dirty or stained.
Use a soft, damp cloth for light dirt. For tougher stains or general cleaning, hand wash with mild soap and water. Avoid scrubbing aggressively or using harsh chemicals, which can damage the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting started with your Karrimor Antibes Walking Sandals is straightforward, ensuring they last and perform well.
Setup and First Use
- Adjust All Straps: Before your first wear, place your foot in the sandal. Fasten and adjust each of the four hook and loop fasteners individually. Aim for a fit that is snug but not constricting, allowing your foot to sit securely without excessive movement.
- Test the Fit: Walk around for a few minutes. If you feel any rubbing or looseness, re-adjust the specific straps until comfort is achieved. Your foot should not slide forward or backward excessively.
- Removable Heel Strap: If you prefer a slip-on style, simply detach the hook and loop fasteners of the heel strap. Keep the removed strap in a safe place if you wish to reattach it later.
Compatibility
- Age Group: Designed for adults.
- Gender: Specifically tailored for men.
- Sizing: Available in UK adult men's sizes, such as UK 11. Choose your standard shoe size.
- Environment: Best suited for warm weather conditions and dry to slightly damp environments. Not recommended for very cold or extremely wet conditions where full foot protection is needed.
Care and Maintenance
Proper care extends the life of your sandals and maintains their comfort:
- Cleaning: Clean your Karrimor Antibes Walking Sandals using a soft damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, you can hand wash them with mild soap and lukewarm water.
- Rinsing: Ensure all soap residue is thoroughly rinsed off to prevent skin irritation and material degradation.
- Drying: Always air dry your sandals. Place them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers). Direct heat can damage materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash, tumble dry, bleach, or use harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the materials and structure of the sandals.
