Summer sandals
Choosing the right sandal for your adventures
When considering the purchase of hiking sandals, it's essential to take several criteria into account. First of all, think about how you'll be using them: for leisurely strolls, sportier hikes or even water activities? Classic hiking boots may be an option, but sandals offer unrivalled lightness and breathability on hot days. Make sure, too, that straps are adjustable for optimum support and that they are made from water-resistant materials.
Brands such as Merrell, Kimberfeel and Source offer a variety of models that meet these requirements. And don't forget to check the sole: a Vibram sole is often recommended for its durability and grip on different types of terrain.
The benefits of hiking sandals
Women's hiking sandals are specifically designed to offer comfort and performance during your excursions. Thanks to their open design, they allow optimum air circulation, which is particularly appreciated on hot summer days. What's more, they are often equipped with good cushioning to help reduce foot fatigue over long distances.
By choosing models suitable for aquatic activities, you can also take full advantage of rivers or beaches without fear of damaging your shoes. These sandals can easily be worn in the water, while offering protection against slippery or rocky surfaces.
How to care for your sandals
To ensure the longevity of your rando sandals, regular maintenance is essential. After each use, especially if they've been exposed to water or mud, clean them with a damp cloth and let them dry naturally away from direct sunlight. Avoid machine washing too, as this can damage sensitive materials.
If you notice that certain parts are beginning to wear, don't hesitate to replace worn parts if possible, or consult your dealer for advice on replacement. Investing in good maintenance will not only extend their lifespan, but also their performance on your next adventure.
