Topless Sandals FAQ
Q: How do the sandals stick to your feet?
A: Topless Sandals have a special adhesive built into the sandal that is designed to stick to your skin, but does not come off on your skin. Just step onto the sandals and go! No tan lines, no hot feet, no blisters, anything between your toes! All the comforts of being barefoot without the pain! They are completely reusable!
Q: How do I put them on?
A: First, make sure that your foot is clean and dry. The oils that accumulate on our skin can keep the topless sandal from sticking as well as it should. Next, make sure that the topless sandal is clean. The adhesive is activated when the sandals are washed then dried. Its sort of like those sticky toys you get out of vending machines, but not as much fun to throw at the wall! Put your foot down on the sandal, heel first. Firmly press as you rock your foot on until your toes are firmly pressed on. As long as you've got it nice and centered, the sandals are on for the day!
Q: How do they stay on?
A:
The top layer of a topless sandal is made of a material that becomes adhesive when it is washed. The best part is that no residue is left on your foot when the sandals are removed! They can even be worn with socks.
Q: How long do the sandals last or stick?
A: The topless sandals will stick to your feet until they get too dirty. When your sandals "stickiness" diminishes, don't panic!! They just need to be washed up. A mild gentle soap will work; water and a soft bristle scouring brush are all you need. Scrub the adhesive surface lightly until dirt and oils are removed, rinse and let air dry. (Usually 15 to 20 min). "Presto your sandals are ready to go again."
Things to note, avoid the use of Dishwasher or Comet® soaps. The chlorine in it will eat the glue and bleach the fabric. The same is true of liquid detergents. You should not use soap with moisturizers or lotions in them for the same reason that you cannot use moisturizers or lotions on your feet. It will cause the glue to lose its adhesive qualities.
Do not use a hard plastic or metal "scouring" brush and do not scrub the surface too vigorously. Again, the glue can be scrubbed right off the shoes. We recommend a nail brush and no more than about 10-15 seconds of brushing should clean the shoes and rejuvenate the glue.
Q: How do you take the sandals off?
A: Simply peel the sandals off. If the sandals become really stuck to your feet, just run water between the bottom of your feet and the sandal glue surface and they will soon pop-off.
Q: Do the sandals feel strange on your feet when you are wearing them?
A: They feel strange for the first moment. Then you don't even notice them on your feet. You have all the comforts of being barefoot without the pain.
Q: Can you wear the sandals in the shower?
A: Topless Sandals are not designed as a shower shoe but yes, you can wear them in the shower. If you need to wash the bottom of your feet, you will have to step back onto dry sandals with clean dry feet.
The sandals are designed to be worn where you would like to be barefoot: Any indoor or outdoor activity, at the pool, in RV parks, around the house, walking the dog, getting the paper, and on vacation.
