Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup
Getting your infant's Samba shoes ready is simple:
- Loosen Laces: Unlace the shoes sufficiently to create a wide opening.
- Slide Foot In: Gently guide your infant's foot into the shoe.
- Adjust & Secure: Tighten the laces (if applicable) or adjust any closures for a snug, yet comfortable fit. Ensure there's enough room for toes to wiggle.
Compatibility
- Age Group: Designed specifically for infants. This model is for a UK Size 5 foot.
- Gender: Unisex design.
- Activities: Best suited for daily wear, light indoor play, crawling, standing practice, and early walking on relatively even surfaces.
Care & Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your infant's Samba shoes:
- Leather Cleaning: For the smooth leather upper, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap (if necessary). Do not saturate the leather.
- Suede Cleaning: For the suede T-toe, use a soft-bristled brush (like a dedicated suede brush) to remove dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or specialized suede cleaner can be used sparingly.
- Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can damage materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Never put these shoes in a washing machine or dryer, as this can severely damage the leather, suede, and sole components.
