FAQs

How often should I check my child's shoe size?

For toddlers, it's recommended to check their shoe size every 6-8 weeks as their feet can grow very rapidly. A professional fitting is always best to ensure proper growth and development.

Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the lightweight flexible TR sole unit and comfortable design are specifically engineered to provide all-day comfort and support for active toddlers.

What is Microban® odour control lining?

Microban is an antimicrobial technology integrated into the shoe's lining. It works to inhibit the growth of bacteria that cause odours, helping to keep the shoes fresh.

Can these shoes be machine washed?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Machine washing can damage the materials and compromise the shoe's structure. Please follow the care instructions for wiping clean and air drying.

What does 'Wide Fit' mean for a toddler shoe?

'Wide Fit' means the shoe is designed with a broader width, providing more room in the toe box and across the midfoot. This is beneficial for children with naturally wider feet or those who need extra space for healthy toe splay and foot development.

Are these shoes suitable for first walkers?

Yes, the supportive heel webbing and flexible sole are beneficial for first walkers, providing stability and allowing for natural foot movement as they learn to walk confidently.

Troubleshooting

Shoes develop an odour despite Microban® lining

While Microban helps, intense activity can still cause some odour. Ensure shoes are aired out daily. You can also remove insoles (if removable) to air separately or use a sprinkle of baking soda inside overnight to absorb moisture and odour.

Child complains shoes are uncomfortable or keeps taking them off

This often indicates a fit issue. Re-check the shoe size, ensuring there's enough room at the toes and the width is appropriate. If the shoe is too tight or too loose, it can cause discomfort. Consult a professional shoe fitter if unsure.

Soles seem to be wearing out quickly

Toddlers are very active, leading to natural wear. Ensure the shoes are primarily used for their intended purpose (everyday wear/light play). Avoid abrasive surfaces where possible. Regular cleaning can also help preserve sole integrity.

Shoes look dirty or stained easily

Toddlers' shoes are prone to dirt. Regularly wipe clean with a damp cloth after each use. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean and air dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Promotes Healthy Foot Development: Specifically structured to nurture growing feet.
  • Superior Comfort: Lightweight and flexible sole provides all-day comfort.
  • Odour Control: Microban lining helps maintain freshness.
  • Enhanced Stability: Heel webbing offers added support.
  • Stylish Design: Cute polka dot bow adds aesthetic appeal.
  • Accommodates Wider Feet: Wide fit ensures a comfortable, non-restrictive fit.

Cons

  • Requires Regular Cleaning: Like all children's shoes, they will accumulate dirt and need frequent cleaning.
  • Not Waterproof: While durable, they are not designed for extensive exposure to water.
  • Sizing is Crucial: Regular checks for correct fit are essential as toddlers' feet grow quickly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Setting up your child's Cove Bow Toddler Wide Fit shoes is simple:

  1. Ensure Correct Fit: Before first wear, ensure the shoes fit correctly. A professional fitting is always recommended for children's shoes. Ensure there's about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe, and that the shoe feels secure but not tight around the ankle and instep.
  2. Adjust Fastening: If applicable (depending on the specific closure, often hook-and-loop for toddlers), adjust the fastening for a snug, comfortable fit that prevents slipping.

Compatibility

  • Age Group: These shoes are specifically designed for toddlers, supporting their unique foot development stage.
  • Foot Type: The 'Wide Fit' designation makes them compatible with children who have broader feet or require more room for healthy growth and toe splay.
  • Activities: Ideal for everyday wear, light play, and indoor/outdoor activities where support and flexibility are key.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and freshness of your child's shoes:

  • Cleaning: For general dirt, wipe the shoes clean with a damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, but always test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not force dry them with heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
  • Odour Control: While the Microban lining reduces odours, occasional airing out of the shoes is still beneficial. You can also sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb lingering smells, then shake it out.
  • Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
  • Regular Checks: Periodically check the soles for wear and tear, and the fit for growth, as toddlers' feet grow rapidly.
