FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The adjustable buckle allows for some customization of the fit. However, the overall width is standard. If you have significantly wide feet, trying them on in person is recommended.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is 2.95 inches (approximately 7.5 cm).
Can I wear these sandals in wet conditions?
While the sole offers grip for everyday use, the jute material is not designed for prolonged exposure to moisture. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet environments to protect the sole.
How does the CushX™ midsole differ from standard cushioning?
The CushX™ midsole combines a soft EVA cushioning inside a firmer EVA shell for stability. It's biomechanically engineered with a specific heel-to-forefoot angle to optimize alignment and comfort, providing a 'sneaker feel' in a heeled shoe.
What material is the buckle made of?
The metal buckle is made from 100% recycled zinc.
How do I clean the jute portion of the sole?
Gently brush off any loose dirt with a soft brush. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners on the jute material, as it can damage the fibers.
Are these considered true to size?
Based on customer feedback for similar Fitflop styles, they are generally considered true to size. However, individual fit can vary.
Troubleshooting
Buckle is difficult to adjust
Ensure the buckle prongs are properly aligned with the holes. If stiff, gently try to loosen the leather strap around the buckle area. Avoid forcing the buckle.
Footbed feels too firm initially
The CushX™ midsole is designed to provide support. Wear the sandals for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your foot's shape.
Metallic finish shows scuff marks
For minor scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft, dry cloth. For more significant marks, consult a professional shoe repair service specializing in leather care.
Slight squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur with new leather. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or ensure all straps are properly secured.
