FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the leather material and the structure of the shoe. Use a damp cloth to clean.
What age group is this specific shoe for?
This variant is specifically designed for children.
Do these shoes provide good arch support?
The EVA midsole provides general cushioning and support, but they are designed primarily for everyday casual and active wear.
Can these be worn in wet weather?
While they feature a rubber outsole for grip, they are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may damage the leather.
How should I store these trainers?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colors from fading and to preserve the leather quality.
Troubleshooting
Outer material is scuffed
Use a matching blue leather polish or conditioner to touch up the affected area.
Sole is losing traction
Clean the rubber tread with a damp cloth to remove built-up dust or gravel that may be compromising the grip.
Shoes feel tight after a long day
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly and allow the shoes to fully air out overnight to release absorbed moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers are made of leather, it is important to avoid submersion in water or excessive machine washing. To clean the upper, use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap to wipe away dirt. For the outsole, a stiff brush can be used to remove debris from the treads. Ensure the shoes are air-dried away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or lose its shape. Always check that the UK size 5 fit allows for a small gap (about a thumb's width) at the toe to ensure healthy foot development.
