FAQs

What material is the sole made of?

The sole is made of durable rubber, providing good traction.

Are these sandals waterproof?

The sandals are made of leather and are not designed to be waterproof. They are best suited for dry or moderately damp conditions.

How should I clean the metallic finish?

Clean the metallic leather gently with a soft, dry cloth. For any marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid harsh cleaners or abrasive materials that could damage the finish.

What is the benefit of the buckle fastening?

The buckle fastening allows for an adjustable and secure fit, ensuring the sandals stay comfortably on the child's foot during activity.

Can these sandals be worn with socks?

While designed to be worn barefoot for comfort and breathability, they can be worn with thin socks if desired, though this may affect the fit and appearance.

Where are these sandals made?

These Pom d'Api sandals are proudly made in France.

What should I do if the size doesn't fit?

Please refer to the product listing for available sizes. If the size is incorrect, you may need to return this pair and order a different size, following the retailer's exchange policy.

Troubleshooting

Buckle is difficult to fasten/unfasten.

Ensure the buckle prongs are aligned correctly with the holes. If stiff, try gently wiggling the buckle. For persistent stiffness, a tiny amount of wax or a specialized leather lubricant might help, but use with extreme caution on leather.

Leather appears dry or dull.

Apply a small amount of a quality leather conditioner specifically designed for leather footwear. Allow it to absorb fully before buffing gently. For metallic finishes, ensure the conditioner is suitable and test on a hidden area first.

Strap rubbing or causing discomfort.

Adjust the buckle to a slightly looser setting. Ensure the foot is positioned correctly within the sandal. If the rubbing persists, consider wearing the sandals for shorter periods initially to allow the leather to soften.

Minor scuffs on the metallic finish.

For very light scuffs, gentle buffing with a soft cloth might reduce their appearance. Deeper scuffs on metallic finishes are difficult to remove completely without professional attention. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods.

Care:

  • Clean the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry completely.
