Troubleshooting
Shoes won't stay securely fastened
Ensure the hook-and-loop strap is clean and free from lint or debris. Press firmly to secure. If the hook-and-loop is worn, consider replacement.
Suede material looks dirty or stained
Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For stains, spot clean with a slightly damp cloth or use a dedicated suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry.
Infant seems uncomfortable
Verify the size is correct for your infant's foot. Ensure the straps are fastened snugly but not too tightly, allowing for natural foot movement.
Elastic laces becoming loose
Check if the laces are properly secured within the shoe design. If they show signs of significant wear, professional repair or replacement might be needed, though this is uncommon for this type of closure.
