FAQs
What is OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification?
OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 is an independent certification system that tests textile products for harmful substances. It ensures that the materials used in these shoes are safe for children.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for everyday casual wear and light activity. They offer good comfort and traction for activities like walking or playing in the park, but are not intended for high-impact sports.
How do I clean the blue canvas material?
It is best to spot clean the canvas with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or soaking, as this can damage the cotton and rubber components.
What is the main advantage of the elasticated fastening?
The elasticated fastening makes the shoes easy for children to put on and take off independently, promoting self-sufficiency while ensuring a snug fit.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the shoes are made primarily of cotton and are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry weather conditions.
Can these trainers be worn by boys and girls?
While listed as 'Female' in some attributes, the style and blue color are generally unisex and can be worn by any child.
Where are these shoes made?
These Bensimon trainers are made in Europe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If new, the cotton may loosen slightly with wear. Try wearing them with thin socks initially.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the elasticated straps are flexible. If stiff, gently stretch them manually. Make sure the child's foot is not too wide for the shoe.
Material appears dirty or stained
Spot clean gently with a damp cloth and mild detergent. For tougher stains, consult specific cotton cleaning guides, but avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
Sole shows signs of wear
Inspect the sole for any tears or detachment. For minor wear, continued use may be fine. For significant damage, consider replacement.
