FAQs

Are these flip-flops suitable for wide feet?

The slim straps and standard width may not be ideal for very wide feet. They are designed to fit a standard adult female foot.

What is the platform height?

The High Platform II offers a subtle elevation. Specific measurements are not provided, but it's designed to be a modest lift rather than a significant platform.

Can I wear these for long walks or hiking?

These flip-flops are best suited for casual, moderate walking. They do not offer the specialized support or durability required for long hikes or strenuous activities.

How do I know which size to order?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer and measure your foot length. The product information indicates this is a UK size 2.5.

Are the materials waterproof?

The flip-flops are made of rubber, making them water-resistant and suitable for wet environments like the beach or poolside. However, prolonged submersion is not recommended.

What is the primary benefit of the platform sole?

The platform sole provides a slight increase in height and contributes to a more considered, stylish silhouette compared to traditional flat flip-flops, while remaining comfortable for everyday wear.

How do I clean the flip-flops?

Clean them with mild soap and cool water, then air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Flip-flops feel slightly stiff initially.

This is normal for new rubber footwear. Wear them for short periods to break them in. The material will soften with use.

Slipping on very wet surfaces.

While designed for grip, extreme wetness on smooth surfaces can still pose a slip risk. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Straps feel uncomfortable after long wear.

Ensure the correct size is selected. If discomfort persists, consider the potential for friction and limit prolonged strenuous walking in them.

Discoloration from prolonged sun exposure.

Avoid leaving the flip-flops in direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can cause fading or material degradation. Store them properly when not in use.
