FAQs
Are these sandals waterproof?
While the polyester straps and rubber soles can handle light water exposure, they are not intended for heavy aquatic use or submerging in water frequently.
How do I determine my size?
These sandals follow standard UK sizing; if you are between sizes, we recommend opting for your usual size, as the straps are highly adjustable.
Can I wear these for long hikes?
The Flatform Universal is designed for lifestyle and casual wear; for technical hiking, we recommend Teva models specifically engineered for trail performance.
Do the straps stretch over time?
Polyester webbing is durable and tends to hold its shape well, though some minimal softening may occur with frequent, long-term use.
Are they easy to put on?
Yes, the hook-and-loop closure system allows for quick entry and exit once the straps are initially set to your preferred tension.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel too tight or dig into the skin
Loosen the hook-and-loop closures slightly and re-adjust while standing to account for foot spread.
Feeling off-balance while walking
Ensure the heel is fully seated in the heel cup; take shorter, more deliberate strides until you are accustomed to the platform height.
Dirt buildup on the footbed
Use a damp cloth with mild soap to scrub the surface, then allow to air dry completely before wearing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, start by loosening all three straps on the sandals. Once your foot is placed in the bed, fasten the ankle strap first, then the forefoot strap for a snug but non-restrictive feel. Because these are made from recycled polyester, they are relatively low maintenance. If the straps become dirty, simply spot-clean them with a mild soap and cold water using a soft cloth or a gentle brush. Air dry the sandals in a shaded area, avoiding direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can degrade the materials over time. Avoid submerging the sandals in harsh chemicals or machine washing them, as this can compromise the adhesive strength of the platform sole.
