Filipe Men's Convertible Sandal Description
The “Astral-ized” flip-flop. Meet Filipe….Astral uses sticky G®Rubber on outsole and footbed to seriously reduce foot slippage. They instantly convert into a “sandal” (that’s crazy!!) via a simple accessory strap. Hike, swim, climb a dune, run around, whatever!
FEATURES
- Granite Grip Outsole: Maximized sole-to-surface contact for increased friction on smooth surfaces. Razor-Siping increases quanity of edges for gripping. Beveled lugs help prevent mud accumulation. Thin profile for flexibility and sufficient sensory feedback promotes better balance and grip.
- Water Ready: All Astral shoes have a special relationship with water. Every component, from the thread to the laces are critically evaluated and chosen for it's ability to hold up after constant soaking, to shed water, and not accumulate funk. Many models have engineered drainage for water to come out while minimizing entry of silt.
- GSS: The "ss" is for "Super Sticky" and we can confidently say that outsoles made with it provide the best grip in water-sports. Unlike other maximum friction compounds, GSS is non-marking and provides good abrasion resistance. it's low durometer (measure of hardness) lessens impact and provides excellent conformity to surfaces.
