Does the shoe provide good arch support?
The trainers feature light cushioning underfoot designed specifically for the comfort and development of infant feet.
How do I ensure the correct fit?
Measure your child's foot and ensure there is a small gap at the toe; the elastic laces and strap help accommodate slight variations in foot width.

The gum rubber outsole is designed for excellent grip and is generally suitable for indoor floor surfaces.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The hook-and-loop closure system offers some adjustability, though they are tailored to a standard fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during use
Adjust the tension of the elastic laces and ensure the hook-and-loop strap is not pulled too tightly.
Difficulty putting on the shoe
Ensure the elastic laces are fully extended and the tongue is pulled forward before inserting the foot.
Surface scuffs on the leather
Use a leather conditioning cream or a damp cloth to gently buff out minor surface marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest life for these trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild leather cleaner if necessary. Avoid machine washing to preserve the structural integrity of the leather and the adhesives.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to stiffen or crack.
- Fit Check: Periodically check that there is about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe to ensure proper development.
- Sole Care: Periodically wipe the gum rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove debris and maintain optimal grip.
