FAQs
What age group are these trainers for?
These trainers are specifically designed for infants and first-time walkers, generally suitable for babies who are beginning to stand and walk independently.
How does the NEW-B closure work?
The NEW-B closure incorporates hidden Velcro fasteners, allowing for an easy slip-on experience while providing a secure fit for the child's foot.
Can the stretch laces be adjusted?
The stretch laces are designed to provide a secure, snug fit with the appearance of traditional laces but do not offer adjustable tightness. They stretch to accommodate the foot.
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
These trainers are optimized for walking and general comfort. For high-impact sports or running, specialized athletic shoes may be more appropriate.
How do I clean the Fresh Foam midsole?
The Fresh Foam midsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or direct heat, as this can damage the material.
What is the heel height of these trainers?
The heel height of these trainers is flat, providing a stable base for young walkers.
Do these trainers come in other colors?

Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping shoe on
Ensure the NEW-B closure is fully open and the stretch laces are relaxed. Gently guide the foot into the shoe.
Child seems uncomfortable
Verify the size is correct and that the shoe is properly secured but not too tight. Check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation.
Sole shows wear
Regularly inspect the rubber outsole for excessive wear. If significant wear is visible, consider replacing the shoes for continued safety and traction.
