FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these leather trainers as water and heat can damage the material and structure.
Does the shoe provide arch support?
Yes, the cushioned comfort insole is designed to provide basic arch support and impact absorption.
Is the leather upper waterproof?
While leather is naturally water-resistant, these shoes are not waterproof and should not be worn in heavy rain or puddles.
What is the best way to clean the outsoles?
Use a soft brush and warm soapy water to scrub the rubber outsoles, then wipe dry with a clean cloth.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The standard lace-up design allows for some adjustment, but they are built to a standard width profile.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Double-knot the laces or swap for elastic-style laces if the child struggles with traditional ties.
Scuff marks on the leather surface
Use a leather-safe cleaner or a matching shoe polish to buff out minor surface scuffs.
Insole losing cushion over time
Consider replacing the original insole with a generic supportive sport insert if additional arch support is needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure these trainers last throughout the school year, proper care is essential. When first putting them on, adjust the laces to fit the child's foot comfortably, ensuring the heel is locked securely against the back of the shoe. To clean, wipe the leather exterior with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; avoid fully submerging the leather in water, as this can degrade the material. If the shoes become damp, air-dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
