Troubleshooting
Laces becoming untied frequently
Ensure laces are tied tightly with a secure knot. Consider using lace locks or double-knotting the laces.
Dirt or scuffs on the fabric upper
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For persistent marks, test a small, inconspicuous area with a specialized fabric cleaner before applying to the entire shoe.
Soles becoming discolored
Clean the rubber sole with a specialized rubber cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water. Avoid harsh chemicals that can alter the rubber's color.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. Ensure the correct size is selected. Adjust the laces for a secure and comfortable fit. The laces can be tied in a standard bow or tucked in for a cleaner look.
Compatibility: Suitable for boys' casual wear. Pairs well with jeans, shorts, and casual trousers. Designed for everyday activities, not specialized sports.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and smudges from the fabric upper. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Cleaning the Sole: The rubber sole can be cleaned with a brush and soapy water. Stubborn marks can often be removed with a magic eraser or a slightly abrasive cleaner, followed by rinsing.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
