Quiksilver Carver Nubuck Youth Sandal
Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Built for After the Waves
The Quiksilver Carver Nubuck Youth Sandal is the go-to slip-on for young surfers heading off the sand. Water-friendly construction means the sandal handles splash and wet feet without breaking down, and the premium-look faux nubuck leather upper gives it a cleaner finish than a standard foam flip flop.
Upper and Toe Post Construction
The upper is crafted from water-friendly faux nubuck leather that resists moisture while maintaining a refined appearance. The toe post is finely woven nylon with a herringbone texture weave that adds grip and durability at the point of contact that typically fails first on a youth sandal.
Footbed Comfort and Support
The faux nubuck leather footbed is anatomically contoured with three key support features: a built-in arch support, a heel contour that cradles the back of the foot, and a toe bar that encourages natural toe grip for a more secure stride. The underside of the footbed is lined with a soft polyester jersey, sourced from REPREVE recycled fiber, so the material against skin stays comfortable through long days of wear.
Outsole Traction
The gum rubber outsole uses multi-angled logo lugs to deliver traction on wet pool decks, boat surfaces, and sandy walkways. The boat-friendly outsole compound is designed not to mark fiberglass or gel-coat decks, making it a practical choice beyond the beach.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are the Quiksilver Carver Nubuck Youth Sandals water-friendly?
- Yes. The upper, footbed, and outsole are all built with water-friendly materials. The faux nubuck leather resists moisture and the gum rubber outsole handles wet surfaces without degrading.
- What is REPREVE lining and why does it matter?
- REPREVE is a recycled polyester fiber made from reclaimed plastic bottles. Quiksilver uses it for the soft jersey lining inside the Carver Nubuck footbed, so the sandal delivers comfort with a lower environmental footprint.
- What does boat-friendly outsole mean on these flip flops?
- A boat-friendly outsole uses a gum rubber compound that grips wet fiberglass, gel-coat, and marine decking without leaving black marks or scuffing the surface. It performs well on docks, boat decks, and wet tile alike.
- Do the Quiksilver Carver Nubuck Youth Sandals provide arch support?
- Yes. The faux nubuck leather footbed is anatomically contoured with built-in arch support, a heel contour, and a toe bar, which is more structured than a flat foam footbed.
- How should I care for these youth sandals?
- Rinse with fresh water after salt water or sand exposure. Allow to air dry away from direct heat or prolonged sunlight to preserve the faux nubuck finish and outsole compound.
- Where can I buy the Quiksilver Carver Nubuck Youth Sandal?
- The Carver Nubuck Youth Sandal is available at Island Water Sports in store and online.
- Are these Quiksilver boys flip flops good for everyday use or just the beach?
- Both. The anatomic footbed and herringbone-textured nylon toe post make them comfortable for extended wear beyond the beach, and the boat-friendly gum rubber outsole transitions well from sand to deck to sidewalk.
