FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for hiking?
These shoes are designed primarily for water-based activities and provide good grip on wet surfaces. While they can be worn for light walking, they may not offer the support or durability required for extensive hiking trails.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the UK sizing guide provided. It is recommended to try them on to ensure a snug but comfortable fit, as water shoes should not be too loose or too tight.
Can I wear these without socks?
Yes, these water shoes are designed to be worn barefoot. The textile lining and flexible sole aim to provide comfort without socks.
Are they machine washable?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these water shoes. Hand washing with fresh water and air drying is the preferred method for cleaning and maintaining their performance.
What is the main benefit of the TPR outsole?
The TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) outsole offers a balance of flexibility and durability, along with a multi-directional grip pattern that is essential for traction on slippery, wet surfaces.
How quickly do they dry?
The textile upper is designed for quick drainage and drying. However, the drying time can vary depending on ambient temperature and humidity.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the fit is still not ideal, consider trying a different size or width if available. The textile upper offers some flexibility, but proper sizing is key.
Traction is reduced on certain surfaces
Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any debris or smooth residue that might be hindering the grip pattern. Ensure the shoes are not worn out; the grip pattern can wear down over time with heavy use.
Water drains slowly
Ensure the drainage channels in the sole are clear of any obstructions. The textile upper also plays a role in drainage; make sure it is not overly saturated or clogged with sand.
