Clarks Roamer Craft - Blue - UK 2

These shoes are specifically designed as a 'first shoe' for infants and toddlers who are learning to stand, cruise, or take their very first independent steps.

While durable for light outdoor use on smooth surfaces, their minimalist design prioritizes natural foot development over heavy-duty protection. They are ideal for everyday wear, nursery, and indoor activities.

It is highly recommended to have your child's feet measured by a professional children's shoe fitter. This ensures the best fit, allowing for proper foot development and comfort.

'Barefoot freedom' refers to the shoe's design principle that mimics the natural sensation and movement of walking barefoot. This includes flexible, minimal soles that allow the foot to feel the ground and move unrestrictedly, supporting balance and natural gait development.

No, these shoes are made of premium leather and should not be washed in a washing machine or submerged in water. Please refer to the 'Care' section for proper cleaning and maintenance instructions.

For light dirt and dust, a damp cloth is usually sufficient. For more persistent scuffs or marks, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for premium leather footwear, following the product's instructions. A leather conditioner can help maintain the leather's appearance.

Ensure the shoes are the correct size and fit properly. An ill-fitting shoe can cause discomfort. Make wearing shoes a positive experience through play or distraction. Double-check for socks bunching or anything irritating inside the shoe.

The Roamer Craft series is designed to be highly flexible and minimal. If they feel stiff, ensure they are not overtightened. Allow a short period for them to 'break in,' though significant stiffness is unexpected for this design. Confirm the size isn't too small.

Regularly wipe the shoes with a damp cloth after each use, especially if worn outdoors. For leather, use a mild leather cleaner as needed to maintain their appearance. Consider the surfaces your child is walking on.

While premium leather offers good breathability, active toddlers can still have sweaty feet. Ensure your child is wearing breathable socks (e.g., cotton). Allow shoes to air out completely between uses. If issues persist, consult a professional for foot health advice.
