FAQs

What is the main benefit of the elastic laces and hook-and-loop closure?

These features make the shoes very easy for parents to put on and take off, while also providing a secure and adjustable fit for the child's foot.

How should I clean the leather and suede parts of the shoe?

Use a soft, damp cloth for the leather and a suede brush for the suede toe cap. Avoid harsh chemicals and do not machine wash.

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports activities?

The Samba OG shoes are designed for casual everyday wear and light play. They offer good traction and flexibility but are not specialized athletic shoes for intense sports.

What is the purpose of the Ortholite sockliner?

The Ortholite sockliner provides enhanced cushioning and comfort for the child's feet, making the shoes comfortable for extended wear.

What does 'Regular fit' mean for these shoes?

It indicates a standard width and shape, suitable for most children's feet. If your child has particularly wide or narrow feet, you may need to adjust the hook-and-loop strap accordingly.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or puddles to protect the materials and prevent excessive wear.

What is the 'Cold Cement' construction mentioned?

Cold Cement construction is a method used to attach the outsole to the upper, known for providing a durable and flexible bond, which is beneficial for children's footwear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes are difficult to put on infant's foot.

Ensure the elastic laces are fully loosened and the hook-and-loop strap is fully open. Gently stretch the opening of the shoe to ease the foot in.

Leather appears scuffed or dirty.

Gently clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For persistent marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Use a suede brush for the suede toe cap.

Hook-and-loop closure is not sticking.

Ensure both the hook and loop sides of the strap are clean and free of debris, lint, or dirt. If the loop side is matted, try brushing it gently. If the strap has lost its adhesion, contact customer support.

Sole seems inflexible.

The rubber outsole is designed to be flexible. Ensure the shoe is the correct size for your child's foot. Some initial stiffness may lessen with wear.
