FAQs

What is Dynamicush™ technology?

Dynamicush™ is FitFlop's proprietary cushioning technology that features high-recovery cushioning zones. It's designed to absorb shock and move with your foot's natural motion, providing enhanced comfort and support throughout the day.

Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?

The sandals feature interlocking straps and an adjustable buckle, which allows for some customization of the fit. However, they are designed with a standard width in mind. It's recommended to try them on if possible or consult FitFlop's sizing guide for specific width recommendations.

How do I clean the leather and crystals?

For the leather, use a soft, damp cloth and avoid harsh chemicals. For the crystals, gently wipe with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth to maintain their sparkle. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the heel height of these sandals?

The heel height is flat, measuring under 2.5cm, ensuring comfort for all-day wear.

Can these sandals be worn for long walks or extensive travel?

While designed for comfort with their Dynamicush™ technology and anatomical footbed, they are primarily fashion sandals. For very long walks or strenuous travel involving significant mileage, specialized walking shoes might offer more dedicated support.

What material is the footbed made of?

The footbed is made of microfiber and is anatomically shaped to distribute pressure and provide a customized, long-lasting fit.

Is the buckle closure secure?

Yes, the adjustable buckle fastening at the heel is designed to provide a secure fit, enhancing stability and comfort with every step.

Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness in leather straps upon first wear.

This is normal for new leather. Wear the sandals around the house for short periods to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape. You can also gently flex the straps with your hands.

Crystals appear dull or lose their sparkle.

Gently wipe the crystals with a dry, soft microfiber cloth. For more persistent dullness, use a slightly damp cloth, followed by a dry buff.

Footbed feels less supportive after extended wear.

The anatomical footbed is designed to mold to your foot over time. Ensure the sandal is properly fitted with the buckle. If the issue persists, consult the manufacturer's warranty information.

Buckle fastener is difficult to adjust.

Ensure the buckle prongs are aligned correctly with the holes. If the buckle mechanism feels stiff, a tiny amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied carefully to the moving parts, but use sparingly.

Care:

  • Leather Straps: Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Crystal Detailing: Wipe gently with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth to maintain shine. Avoid excessive rubbing or exposure to harsh cleaning agents which could damage the adhesive or the crystals.
  • Footbed: The microfiber footbed can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth. Allow to air dry naturally.
  • Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Ensure the outsole is dry before wearing to maintain grip.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe bag can help protect them from dust and scratches.
