FAQs
Are these slides waterproof?
While designed for use around water (pool, beach), they are not fully waterproof in the sense of being submersible for extended periods. The materials are water-resistant and quick-drying, making them suitable for wet environments, but proper cleaning and drying after water exposure are recommended.
What age group are these slides for?
These specific slides are sized for kids, with this particular variant being a UK size 4. Nike Kawa Slides are generally available across various children's age groups, including toddlers and older children.
How do I clean the elastic ankle strap?
The elastic ankle strap can be cleaned along with the rest of the slide using a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Gently wipe, rinse off any soap residue with clean water, and then allow to air dry completely.
Can these slides be worn for sports?
These slides are ideal for casual wear, pre and post-sport activities (like after swimming), and water-related fun. They are not designed for active sports where robust foot protection, support, and specific grip patterns are required.
Is the cushioning durable?
The soft foam cushioning is designed for comfort and everyday wear. With proper care and typical use, it maintains its supportive properties. To extend durability, avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat or sharp objects that could puncture or deform the foam.
Troubleshooting
Slides feel too loose or too tight.
Ensure the correct UK size has been selected. The elastic strap should provide a snug, but not constricting, fit around the ankle. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different size.
Foot slips inside the slide when wet.
While designed for water, extreme slipperiness can occur on certain surfaces. Ensure feet are as dry as possible before wearing, and exercise caution on very smooth or tiled wet areas. The soft foam offers some grip, but is not anti-slip for all conditions.
Elastic ankle strap feels uncomfortable or causes chafing.
Check if the strap is twisted or if there's any debris underneath. Over time, the strap should conform slightly to the foot. If it causes chafing, ensure it's not too tight; adjust its position if possible, or wear for shorter periods initially to allow for adjustment.

Care
- Cleaning: Clean regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap. For best results, gently wipe away dirt and grime from the foam footbed and strap.
- Drying: Allow to air dry completely away from direct sunlight or extreme heat sources, as these can cause material degradation.
- Water Exposure: If exposed to chlorinated water (e.g., swimming pools) or saltwater (e.g., ocean), rinse thoroughly with fresh water immediately after use to prevent material degradation and discoloration.
- Avoid: Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or stiff brushes, as these can damage the soft foam and strap materials. Avoid prolonged submersion.
