Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, have the child wear the socks they intend to use with the trainers while trying them on. The lace closure should be tightened until snug but not restrictive to maintain circulation. For maintenance, remove surface dirt with a soft brush after outdoor play. If the shoes become heavily soiled, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes in water or putting them in the clothes dryer, as excessive heat can degrade the adhesive and synthetic materials. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
