AFTER YOU BUY

TEST THE FIT
        
  • Before trying them on, flex the footbed by placing one hand under the toe and one under the heel. This begins the break-in period.     
  • Open all the straps, step in and then fasten them comfortably.   
  • Check that your toes don’t touch the edge of the footbed. Aim for about ¼ inch of space around your foot.

BREAK THEM IN

        
  • Keep straps loose at first to avoid pressure points.     
  • Wear them around the house for 1–2 hours at a time.   
  • Gradually increase wear time as your feet adjust to the footbed.   
  • Tighten the straps as the footbed begins to mold to your feet.
