FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The Lulu silhouette generally accommodates a medium width well. If you have significantly wide feet, you may find them snug. Trying them on or checking customer reviews for width feedback is recommended.
Can I wear these in wet conditions?
While the outsole offers some grip, the suede upper is not water-resistant and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet environments.
How do I clean the graphic wedge sole?
The graphic wedge sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the graphic pattern.
What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?
It signifies that the American Podiatric Medical Association has evaluated the footwear and found it to be beneficial for foot health, promoting proper alignment and support.
What is the primary benefit of the Microwobbleboard™ technology?
Microwobbleboard™ technology provides triple-density cushioning that diffuses pressure, absorbs shock, and cushions every step, contributing to overall foot comfort and reducing fatigue.
How long does it take to break in these slides?
Most users find the FitFlop Lulu slides comfortable from the first wear. However, some may prefer a short break-in period of a few hours of wear around the house to allow the materials to fully conform to their foot shape.
Can I wear these for athletic activities?
No, these slides are designed for casual wear and comfort, not for athletic performance. The slip-resistant outsole is suitable for daily walking, but they do not offer the support or stability required for sports.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears discolored or dirty.
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, try a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.
Straps feel a bit stiff initially.
This is common with new suede. Wear them for short periods around the house to allow them to mold to your feet. The suede will naturally soften with wear.
Outsole grip seems reduced.
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. If the sole appears worn, its grip may be compromised over time. For significant wear, consider professional shoe repair.
Foot discomfort after extended wear.
While designed for comfort, ensure you have selected the correct size. If discomfort persists, take breaks or consult the FAQs regarding break-in periods.
