FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the 574 series is built on a wider last than many other models, providing a more spacious fit that is ideal for growing children.
How do I clean the leather material?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild leather-safe cleaner for tougher marks, but avoid heavy soaking.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles in this model are generally removable, allowing you to insert orthotics if required.
Is the black colour uniform on the entire shoe?
Yes, the core black version features a consistent black colourway, making it a great option for more formal or school settings.
Can these be used for sports?
While they are comfortable for general play and walking, they are classified as casual lifestyle trainers rather than performance-specific athletic gear.
Troubleshooting
Hook & loop straps losing grip
Remove lint, threads, or debris from the hooks using a small brush or tweezers to ensure the straps stick effectively.
Leather looks dull or scuffed
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or a black shoe polish designed for sneakers to restore the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are hook & loop trainers, no setup is required—simply adjust the straps to provide a secure fit across the bridge of the foot. To maintain the leather upper, we recommend wiping them down with a damp cloth after particularly muddy play. For deeper stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner and a soft-bristled brush. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the leather and the adhesives used in the sole construction. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking.
