Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Open Fasteners: Fully open the Velcro strap and loosen the laces.
- Position Foot: Gently slide your child's foot into the shoe, ensuring their heel is seated properly.
- Adjust Laces: Pull the laces to achieve a snug, but not tight, fit across the top of the foot. Tie the laces securely.
- Secure Velcro: Fasten the Velcro strap firmly over the laces to add extra security and prevent untying.
- Check Fit: Ensure there's about a thumb's width space between your child's longest toe and the end of the shoe. Your child should be able to wiggle their toes comfortably.
Compatibility
- Age Group: Specifically designed for toddlers.
- Gender: Unisex design, suitable for both boys and girls.
- Sizing: Available in UK toddler sizes. Always refer to a sizing chart and measure your child's foot to ensure the best fit, as UK/US/Euro sizes can vary on labels.
Care
Maintaining the suede upper is key to keeping these trainers looking great:
- Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt and scuffs, use a suede brush to gently brush away debris. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
- Deeper Stains: For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner according to its instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter to help repel water and stains.
- Avoid Water: Suede is not water-friendly. Try to avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Do Not Machine Wash: Machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede and the shoe's structure.
