FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, because the upper is made of leather, machine washing can cause the material to stiffen or warp. Please use a damp cloth to clean them.
Is the insole removable?
The cushioned insole is designed as an integrated part of the comfort system; it is not intended for regular removal.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for children, but it is recommended to leave a thumb's width of space at the toe for growth.
Can these be worn for sports?
They are ideal for general everyday activity and casual play, though they are not specialized performance footwear for high-intensity competitive sports.
What is the best way to store them?
Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to keep the leather from fading and the cushioning materials from breaking down.
Troubleshooting
Laces constantly come untied
Try a 'double knot' technique or replace with high-friction cotton laces.
Scuff marks on the leather
Use a soft eraser for light scuffs or a color-matched leather cream for deeper marks.
Shoe feels too tight over the instep
Loosen the lacing pattern at the bottom eyelets to relieve pressure across the top of the foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure the laces are adjusted to the mid-foot area without being overly tight, allowing for natural swelling of the foot during physical activity. Because these trainers are made primarily of leather, they should not be submerged in water or machine washed. To clean, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth and use a dedicated leather cleaner or conditioner periodically to prevent the material from cracking. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to maintain the structural integrity of the leather and internal cushioning.
