4. Maintenance and Care
Proper care will extend the lifespan and maintain the appearance of your ADILETTE COMFORT W sandals.
- Cleaning:
- For the synthetic leather upper and synthetic sole, wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the material.
- Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Drying: Allow sandals to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Excessive heat can cause materials to warp or crack.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures or humidity.

| Slipping on wet surfaces | Synthetic sole may have reduced grip on very wet or smooth surfaces. | Exercise caution on wet or slippery surfaces. The sandals are not designed for high-traction activities. |
