Product Information
Full details
The Shoo Pom Play Connect trainers are high-quality, durable footwear designed for active kids who need reliable support for daily play. Crafted from a blend of premium leather and textile materials, these shoes offer a blend of breathability and structure, ensuring comfort during long periods of wear. While they provide excellent traction and a secure fit, the lace-up design requires a bit more time to secure compared to velcro alternatives, making them best suited for children who can manage their own laces or for parents looking for a classic, adjustable fit.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The lace-up design allows for significant width adjustment, making them more accommodating than slip-on styles.
Can the insoles be replaced?
Yes, if you use custom orthotics, the factory insoles are generally removable.
How do I know if the size 13 is correct for my child?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between the big toe and the front of the shoe.
Are these trainers waterproof?
They are water-resistant due to the leather material, but they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in puddles.
Can these be machine washed?
No, machine washing will damage the leather and the structure of the shoe.
What is the best way to clean the rubber sole?
Use an old toothbrush and warm soapy water to scrub dirt out of the tread of the rubber sole.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Double-knot the laces or swap them for textured laces that grip better.
Leather looking scuffed or dull
Apply a small amount of neutral leather cream or polish to buff out scuffs and restore shine.
Interior feeling stiff
Wear the shoes in for a few hours at a time; the leather will soften and mold to the foot over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure the laces are loosened entirely before your child puts on the shoes, then tighten from the toe up to the ankle for optimal support. Because these are made with leather, avoid machine washing them, as this can crack the material and weaken the adhesive. Instead, clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and use a gentle leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple. If the interior becomes damp or smelly, remove the insoles and let them air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to stiffen.
