SWIMMERS

Swimmers: Slides & Flip-Flops for Pool, Beach and Post-Ride

The Swimmers category at Foxracing.si gathers slides, flip-flops and pool sandals - the easy slip-on footwear you pull on after a ride, a session in the water or a day in the sun. It is part of our clothing add-ons range and suits men, women and teens who want something light and quick-drying for the beach, the pool, the campsite, the paddock or the changing room. Every pair here is an open, strap-style sandal, not a closed shoe, so it is built for warm weather and wet surfaces.

What this category covers

  • Slides - a single wide band over the forefoot, the fastest pair to step into and the classic choice after riding, training or swimming.
  • Flip-flops (thongs) - a toe post and V-strap, lighter and more packable, ideal for the beach, the boat or as holiday footwear.
  • Pool and shower sandals - water-friendly styles with textured footbeds and grippy outsoles for tiled, wet floors.

How to choose the right pair

  • Size and fit: slides and flip-flops normally come in whole sizes. Your toes and heel should sit inside the footbed without overhanging; if you are between sizes, most people go up. Check the size chart of the specific model, as surf and moto brands can run differently.
  • Footbed and cushioning: moulded EVA or foam footbeds are soft and light, while contoured beds with a slight arch shape give more support if you wear them all day. A textured surface stops your foot sliding when wet.
  • Strap type and comfort: a wide single band spreads pressure and is easier on the feet than a toe post; toe-post styles are lighter. Synthetic straps with a soft lining reduce rubbing on bare skin.
  • Outsole and grip: a patterned rubber or rubberised EVA outsole matters on wet tiles, pool decks and boat surfaces. A thicker outsole handles gravel, grass and campsites better.
  • Water resistance: full EVA or rubber constructions shrug off water and dry fast, which is what you want for swimming and showers. Textile straps are comfortable but take longer to dry.
  • Use and style: pick a chunkier, cushioned slide for post-ride and everyday wear, and a slim flip-flop for travel and the beach. Logo and graphic branding is a big part of the look in this category.

Brands

Fox brings its motocross and MTB heritage to slip-on footwear, so expect bold logo branding and cushioned slides made for wearing after a ride. Rip Curl comes from the surf side, with beach-ready flip-flops and slides built around water, sand and sun.

FAQ

What is the difference between slides and flip-flops?

Slides have one wide strap across the forefoot and no toe post, so you simply slide your foot in. Flip-flops hold the foot with a V-strap that passes between the big toe and the second toe.

What size should I order?

Order your usual shoe size and compare it with the brand's size chart on the product page. If you are between sizes or have wider feet, choosing the larger size is usually the safer option.

Can I wear them in the pool and the shower?

Yes - EVA and rubber models are made for wet areas and dry quickly. Look for a textured footbed and a grippy outsole for better traction on tiles.

How do I clean them?

Rinse off sand, salt and chlorine with lukewarm water, wipe the footbed with mild soap and let them air-dry away from direct heat, which can deform foam.

Are they suitable for men and women?

Most slides and flip-flops in this category are unisex in style; the fit is determined by the size you choose, so check each model's size range.
