In short: sliders in one piece moulded EVA, black, with the Esprit Boxe mark and the FOR THE GLORY line in white on the strap. Sole and strap with no seam, cushioned footbed, ribbed non slip underside. 18 sizes, EU 28 to 45 (US kids' 11 to men's 11.5). They do not rot: they go into the changing room shower. €19, free standard shipping.
These are what you slip on coming off the ring to cross the changing room, and keep on in the shower. EVA does not take on water, does not mould and dries in minutes — the three reasons the material took over every sports changing room. The Esprit Boxe mark and the FOR THE GLORY line are printed in white on the strap, across about half its width.
A club changing room floor is not a living room floor
Shared showers, wet mats, bare feet all year round: sports changing rooms are the leading place athlete's foot is passed on. A pair of sliders you only take off once you are home remains the simplest and most effective hygiene measure. That is what these are built for.
One piece moulded EVA
Sole and strap are formed from a single block of EVA foam, with no seam and no glue. Strap and sole are one piece: there is no joint to come apart, whatever the use.
EVA also brings the cushioning underfoot: the foam gives slightly with each step and softens the contact with a hard floor. On changing room tiles the difference against a rigid sole shows in the first few metres.
EU 28 to 45: the whole family
Eighteen sizes, from EU 28 (US kids' 11) to EU 45 (US men's 11.5). That is unusual on this kind of product, and it covers a whole club: the youngsters in the boxing school as well as the adults in the evening class.
The fit is unisex and true to size. Between two sizes, take the larger: a slightly roomy slider stays comfortable, whereas a tight one presses on the instep.

Good to know before ordering
These are changing room sliders. Soft, cushioned EVA gives its comfort over the few hundred metres from the changing room to the shower and from the gym to the car. For a full day on your feet, a shoe with a structured sole is the right format.
The underside is ribbed for grip. The grooves clear water from under the sole and give purchase on wet tiles. On a soapy floor, walk normally: no foam sole is built for running in the showers.
Do not leave them in the sun behind a windscreen. EVA distorts with heat: a pair forgotten in a car in high summer can warp for good.
Care
Rinse in clean water and air dry in the shade. That is all: EVA holds neither water nor odour. Avoid the washing machine, the tumble dryer and any direct heat source, which distort the foam. The mark on the strap cleans with a damp cloth, with no abrasive product.
FAQ
Can they be worn in the shower?
Yes, that is their main use. EVA does not rot: it does not take on water, does not mould and dries in minutes. In a club changing room, keeping your sliders on until you leave remains the best protection against athlete's foot.
Which sizes are available?
Eighteen sizes, EU 28 to 45 (US kids' 11 to men's 11.5). The fit is unisex and true to size. Between two sizes, take the larger: a tight slider presses on the instep.
Could the strap come away?
No. Sole and strap are moulded from a single block of EVA, with no seam and no glue: there is no joint between the two, so nothing that can come apart.
Do they slip on a wet floor?
The ribbed underside clears water from under the sole and gives purchase on wet tiles. On a soapy floor, walk normally: no foam sole is built for running in the showers.
Can they go in the washing machine?
No, and there is no need: a rinse in clean water is enough, EVA holds neither water nor odour. Avoid the tumble dryer and any heat source too, which distort the foam for good.
Do they work for everyday wear at home?
Yes, they are light and cushioned, and the EVA rinses under clean water. For a full day on your feet or a long walk, a shoe with a structured sole is the right format.
