Wear thick socks to protect your heel

Commenters loved that they could slip on and off the sneakers easily. One reviewer noted some discomfort in the heel area because the shoe “rubs against the Achilles tendon.” An expert agrees and says that the slip-on is “a little bit clunky in the heel.”

A tester shared their "big mistake" of wearing them without socks and experienced the cuff cut into the back of their ankle. A commenter suggested wearing socks prevents blisters on the back heel where the knit area meets the firm part of the shoe.

Half size down for a better fit

People agree that the slip-on runs wider than usual shoe sizes. For some, this is a boon because “it makes them easier to put on and remove.” Most reviews advise sizing down when buying for a good fit. A sneakerhead suggested going true size for those with wider feet. Otherwise, they say getting half a size down and “you should be good to go.”

Laces are a bit problematic

Some people noted that the excess cords “hang off the back and drag” and could even get tangled. A reviewer said that “when cinched to tighten, the tail in the back needs to be threaded through” to avoid brushing against the legs.

Commenters compared the kicks to the classic Jungle Moc, saying they are “probably not as durable.” Another fan noted that the arch support on the inner liner is “not as good on the Explorer as the other slip-on mocs.”
