Product Information
Full details
These Bensimon Kids Canvas Slip Ons are designed for young children seeking comfortable and easy-to-wear trainers. The key benefit is their simple slip-on design with elasticated fastening, making them ideal for quick dressing. A potential caveat is that while made of cotton, they may not offer significant water resistance for extensive outdoor play in wet conditions. The trainers feature a flat heel, a smooth cotton finish for both the uppers and lining, and a durable rubber sole, all manufactured in Europe and certified by OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 for safety.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and comfort. While they offer a rubber sole for traction, they do not provide the specialized support or cushioning needed for rigorous sports activities.
How do I know if UK 7.5 is the right size?
It is recommended to measure your child's foot from heel to the longest toe and compare it with a standard children's shoe size chart. Alternatively, try them on if possible to ensure a comfortable fit without being too tight or loose.
Can these shoes be washed in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with mild soap and cold water is the preferred method to preserve the material and shape. Always air dry.
What does OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification mean?
This certification means that the textiles used in these shoes have been tested and found to be free from harmful substances, making them safe for children's sensitive skin.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, these trainers are made primarily from cotton and are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry weather conditions.
How durable is the rubber sole?
The 100% rubber sole is designed for durability for everyday wear and provides good grip. However, extensive rough play may cause wear over time, as with most footwear.
What is the main advantage of the elasticated fastening?
The elasticated fastening makes the trainers very easy for children to put on and take off independently, promoting self-dressing skills.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Cotton can stretch slightly with wear. Ensure the correct size is being used. If still tight, consider a half-size up if available, or ensure the foot is not too wide for the slip-on style.
Difficulty getting the shoe on
Ensure the elasticated fasteners are flexible. Gently stretch the opening or ask the child to slide their foot in while you hold the heel.
Discoloration or staining
Address stains promptly with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, refer to the care instructions for spot cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Sole detaching slightly
This is rare. If minor separation occurs, a strong fabric or shoe adhesive might provide a temporary fix. For significant detachment, contact customer support.
