FAQs

What is the 'barefoot feel' and why is it important?

The 'barefoot feel' means the shoe is designed to be highly flexible and allow the foot to move naturally, mimicking the sensation of walking barefoot. This is important for infants and toddlers as it aids in developing strong foot muscles, balance, and a natural gait.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Measure your child's foot from heel to the longest toe. Compare this measurement to the brand's sizing chart. Leave a small amount of growing room (typically about a finger's width) at the front. The boot should fit snugly around the ankle and heel without being too tight.

Are these boots waterproof?

The Geox Macchia boots are designed for breathability and comfort, not for waterproofing. While the leather may offer some resistance to light moisture, they are not suitable for prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

Can I wash the entire shoe?

No, the entire shoe should not be washed. Clean the leather upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. The insole can be removed and wiped clean, but the shoes themselves should not be submerged in water or put in a washing machine.

What does the Geox patented system do?

The patented Geox system in the outsole creates a membrane that allows air to circulate, facilitating heat and moisture to escape the shoe. This helps to keep the foot dry and comfortable, preventing overheating.

How often should I check the fit of my child's shoes?

Children's feet grow rapidly. It is recommended to check the fit of their shoes at least every 2-3 months, or more frequently if you notice signs of discomfort or the child outgrowing them.

What is the difference between nubuck and nappa leather?

Nappa leather is a smooth, soft, and durable type of leather. Nubuck leather is buffed on the outer side to give it a velvety feel, similar to suede but typically more durable and less prone to absorbing stains.

Troubleshooting

Child seems uncomfortable or restricted.

Ensure the correct size is selected. Verify that the riptape fastening is not too tight. Check that the riptape is securely fastened to provide proper support.

Leather appears scuffed or marked.

Use a specialized nubuck/leather cleaner and a soft brush to gently remove scuff marks. For minor scuffs, a dry, soft cloth may suffice.

Insole feels damp.

Remove the insole and allow it to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Avoid machine drying.

Riptape losing effectiveness.

Clean the riptape surfaces with a stiff brush to remove any debris that might be preventing a secure closure. Ensure the surfaces are dry before fastening.
