Goodfellow & Co Men's Kendrix Slides
The Kendrix slides are built for guys who want effortless comfort without sacrificing style. We designed these slides with a molded foam construction that cushions every step, whether you're heading to the gym, running weekend errands, or just kicking back at home.
The contoured footbed follows the natural shape of your foot to deliver all-day support that doesn't flatten out after a few wears. A textured outsole gives you reliable traction on tile, wood, and poolside surfaces. The single-band upper sits securely across the top of your foot without pinching or rubbing, and the minimalist silhouette works with shorts, joggers, or swim trunks.
What makes the Kendrix different
Materials & Construction
We built the Goodfellow & Co Men’s Kendrix slides with molded EVA foam — a material chosen for its blend of flexibility, durability, and shock absorption. EVA compresses slightly under pressure to cushion your heel strike, then bounces back to its original shape once you lift your foot. That resilience means the slides maintain their supportive feel through hundreds of wears.
The single-piece upper and footbed construction eliminates seams that might irritate your skin or trap moisture. The textured pattern molded into the outsole channels water away from the contact surface, reducing the risk of slipping when you step out of the shower or walk across a wet deck. Because EVA foam is inherently water-resistant, these slides dry quickly and won’t develop the musty odor that fabric-lined sandals sometimes pick up.
Sizing & Fit
The Kendrix slides run true to size across the full range from men’s 7 to 13. We recommend ordering your usual sneaker size for a fit that leaves about a quarter-inch of space at the heel and toe. If you typically wear a half size, we suggest sizing up to the next whole number — the slides will still feel secure without pinching.
The footbed width accommodates medium and slightly wider feet comfortably. The single band sits across the widest part of your foot and has enough give to flex as you walk, so you won’t feel a tight strap digging in during extended wear. If you have a high instep, you may notice the band feels snug at first, but the foam softens within a few wears to conform to your foot shape.
Care Instructions
Maintaining your Kendrix slides takes almost no effort. Wipe the footbed and upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt, sweat, or sand after a day at the beach or gym. For deeper cleaning, rinse the entire slide under cool running water and scrub gently with a soft brush and mild soap.
Avoid leaving the slides in direct sunlight for extended periods — while EVA foam resists fading better than many materials, prolonged UV exposure can still cause slight discoloration over time. Store them in a cool, dry spot when you’re not wearing them. Because the foam construction is lightweight and resilient, the slides won’t lose their shape if you toss them in a gym bag or suitcase.

Questions About The Kendrix Slides
Yes, the molded footbed includes a gentle arch contour that supports the natural curve of your foot. It's not as pronounced as you'd find in an orthotic sandal, but it provides more structure than completely flat slides. Most customers find the level of support comfortable for casual wear and post-workout recovery.
Absolutely. The EVA foam construction is fully water-resistant and dries quickly. The textured outsole provides slip resistance on wet tile and pool decks. Many customers use them as shower shoes in gym locker rooms or as poolside footwear. Just rinse them off after exposure to chlorinated water to keep the foam looking fresh.
The Kendrix slides run true to size for most customers. If you wear a whole size in sneakers, order that same size. If you're between sizes, we recommend going up to the next whole number for a more relaxed fit. You want about a quarter-inch of space at your heel and toe for optimal comfort during extended wear.
EVA foam is designed to compress slightly under pressure and then return to its original shape. With normal use, the Kendrix slides maintain their cushioning and support for many months. Customers who wear them daily report the footbed still feels supportive after six months or more. Avoid leaving them in hot cars or direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as excessive heat can accelerate foam breakdown.
The Kendrix slides work well for short to moderate walking — around the neighborhood, across campus, or through a shopping center. They're not designed for long hikes or all-day walking tours, but they provide enough cushioning and traction for typical daily errands. The contoured footbed and slip-resistant outsole give you stability on varied surfaces.
The Kendrix features a single-band design and molded foam construction focused on simplicity and comfort. Other models in our collection offer dual bands, adjustable straps, or specialized features like drainage channels for shower use. The Kendrix sits in the middle of our lineup in terms of cushioning and price, making it a versatile everyday option.
For routine cleaning, wipe the slides with a damp cloth after each wear. For tougher stains, rinse them under cool water and use a soft brush with mild soap to scrub the footbed and outsole. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, as they can degrade the foam over time. Let the slides air dry at room temperature rather than using a heat source.
