FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for hiking?
The KEEN Clearwater CNX Sandals are best suited for light trails, especially those near water. Their open design and focus on water performance mean they offer less protection and support than dedicated hiking boots on rough or uneven terrain.
How do I clean my Clearwater CNX sandals?
You can machine wash them on a gentle cycle with a small amount of mild detergent. Allow them to air dry completely; do not put them in a dryer.
Are these sandals good for wide feet?
Yes, the KEEN Original Fit provides generous space for toes to spread out, making them a good option for individuals with wider feet.
Can I wear these sandals in salt water?
Yes, these sandals are suitable for salt water. However, it's recommended to rinse them with fresh water after use in salt water to prolong their lifespan and maintain material integrity.
What does 'CNX' stand for?
CNX stands for 'Connectivity', referring to the sandals' low-profile design that enhances ground feel and keeps you connected to your environment.
Do these sandals have arch support?
Yes, they feature a lightweight cushioning footbed with built-in arch support to provide comfort during extended wear.
Are the straps adjustable?
The primary adjustment comes from the lace lock bungee capture system, allowing you to secure the fit. The webbing straps themselves are fixed but designed to work with the bungee system for a custom feel.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too loose or too tight
Adjust the bungee lace system. Pull the toggle to tighten or press the button on the side of the toggle to loosen and reposition the laces.
Slipping on very smooth surfaces
While designed for wet grip, extremely polished surfaces may reduce traction. Ensure the outsole is clean of mud or debris.
Discomfort after extended wear
Ensure the bungee laces are adjusted for optimal comfort, not too tight. Allow for break-in period if new. Consider if the activity demands a more supportive shoe.
