Troubleshooting

Difficulty putting on shoes

Ensure the tongue is fully loosened and pulled forward. Check that the correct shoe size has been selected. Practice the slipping-on motion.

Leather shows scuffs or marks

Use a damp cloth and mild soap solution to gently clean the affected area. For persistent marks, consider a specialized leather cleaner.

Shoes smell after wear

Remove insoles if possible and allow shoes to air out completely in a well-ventilated area. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.

Stitching appears loose

Minor loose threads can be carefully trimmed. If significant stitching is coming undone, contact customer support for potential warranty claims.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the correct size is selected before use.

Compatibility: Designed for casual wear and everyday use by children. They are compatible with a wide range of children's clothing.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a clean, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, wet cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  3. Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray to help repel water and stains, especially before prolonged outdoor use.
