FAQs
What are the primary materials used in these trainers?
The uppers are made of 80% leather and 20% textile. The lining and cushioning are 100% textile, and the sole is 100% rubber.
How do the trainers fasten?
They feature a convenient touch 'n' close fastening system, making them easy for children to put on and take off independently.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The product description does not specify width options, but the touch 'n' close fastening allows for some adjustment. It is best to check sizing guides or try them on if possible.
How should I clean the beige suede sections?
For suede and nubuck, use a specialized suede cleaner and a soft brush. For general dirt on textile or leather, a damp cloth is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals and machine washing.
What does the Leather Working Group (LWG) certification mean?
LWG certification indicates that the leather used comes from tanneries that adhere to recognized environmental standards, covering aspects like energy and water consumption, waste management, and emissions.
What sizes are available?
These trainers are available in various children's UK sizes, starting from size 10 kid up to size 2 kid, including half sizes.
Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?
While the leather and rubber offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may affect the materials.
Troubleshooting
Shoes won't stay fastened
Ensure the touch 'n' close straps are clean and free from debris. If the hook-and-loop material is worn, it may need replacement.
Leather appears scuffed or dirty
Use a specialized suede or nubuck cleaner for the leather sections. For minor marks, a slightly damp cloth may suffice. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Sole is losing grip
Clean the rubber sole thoroughly with a brush and water to remove any embedded dirt or grit that may be reducing traction. Inspect for significant wear on the tread pattern.
Interior feels uncomfortable
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Check that the textile cushioning is not compressed or damaged. Consider adding a thin, child-appropriate insole if needed.
