Sandals

What to look for in sandals

Sandals split into a few categories. Sport sandals from Chaco and Teva have adjustable straps and grippy outsoles for hiking, paddling, and water use. Recovery slides like Oofos cushion tired feet after long miles. Slides and slip-ons from Reef and Birkenstock work for casual everyday wear. Fit your sandals like you fit shoes. Adjustable straps let you dial in support. The footbed should match your arch. Walk in them in the store before deciding.

FAQ

Are recovery sandals worth it?

If you stand or run a lot, yes. Cushioned slides like Oofos take pressure off feet, ankles, and knees after long days.

Can I hike in sandals?

Sport sandals from Chaco, Teva, and Keen handle moderate hiking and water crossings. For technical terrain or cold weather, real shoes are still the call.

How do I clean sandals after water use?

Rinse in cold water and let air dry. Avoid hot dryers, which can warp foam footbeds.

Do you carry wide widths in sandals?

Some brands offer width options, others don't. The product page lists what's available.
