FAQs

What material are these shoes made from?

The Miso Mary Ballet Infants shoes are made from 100% PU (Polyurethane), a synthetic material known for its durability and patent finish.

Are these shoes suitable for first walkers?

Yes, the rubber sole provides essential traction and comfort, making them suitable for infants who are crawling, cruising, or taking their first steps. For extensive outdoor walking, however, more structured walking shoes might offer additional support.

How do I determine the correct size for my infant?

It's best to measure your child's foot and compare it to a Miso sizing chart, if available. When trying them on, ensure there's about a thumb's width space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe, with a snug but comfortable fit around the ankle and heel.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the PU material offers some resistance to moisture, these shoes are not fully waterproof. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles to maintain their condition and ensure your child's comfort.

How do I clean the hook and loop fasteners if they lose grip?

Over time, lint and debris can accumulate in the hook and loop fasteners, reducing their effectiveness. Use a stiff brush (like an old toothbrush) or tweezers to carefully remove any fuzz or threads from both the hook and loop sides to restore their grip.

Do these shoes come in other colors?

This specific variant of the Miso Mary Ballet Infants shoe is available in Black. Please check the product listings for other available colors or styles within the Miso infants' range.

Troubleshooting

Shoes slip off too easily

Ensure the hook and loop strap is securely fastened, but not uncomfortably tight. If the shoe still feels loose, double-check that you have the correct size for your infant, as an oversized shoe will not provide a secure fit. Ensure socks are not too slippery.

Patent finish looks dull or scuffed

Gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For light scuffs, a small amount of patent leather cleaner (specifically for synthetic patent materials) can be applied carefully. A dab of petroleum jelly rubbed gently can sometimes restore shine to minor scuffs. Avoid abrasive cleaning materials.

My child seems uncomfortable or tries to take the shoes off

Check the fit. Ensure the shoes are not too tight or too loose, and that socks are smooth inside without bunching. Allow your child to wear them for short periods initially to get accustomed. If discomfort persists, the size might be incorrect, or the shoe style may not suit their foot shape. Consult a pediatrician or shoe fitting specialist if concerns continue.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy to put on and take off with the hook and loop closure.
  • Stylish patent finish with a cute bow.
  • Rubber sole provides good traction and comfort for infants.
  • Durable synthetic material for longevity.
  • Versatile for various dressy or casual outfits.

Cons

  • Synthetic material (100% PU) may not be as breathable as natural materials.
  • Limited flexibility compared to soft-sole shoes for very early walkers.
  • Not designed for heavy-duty outdoor play.
  • Requires gentle cleaning to maintain the patent shine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Ensure the correct size for your child's foot. For best fit, measure your infant's foot.
  2. Open the hook and loop strap completely to create a wide opening.
  3. Gently guide your infant's foot into the shoe, ensuring toes are not curled.
  4. Close the strap, adjusting for a snug but not overly tight fit. Ensure there's enough room for movement without the shoe slipping off.

Compatibility

These shoes are designed specifically for infants. Ensure the size matches your child's current UK foot size (e.g., UK 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) for optimal comfort and support.

Care

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the patent PU material with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and scuffs. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
  2. Drying: Air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the material and construction.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures, which can affect the patent finish.
  4. Avoid harsh chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, polishes, or solvents, as these can damage the 100% PU material and finish.
