FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for school sports?
Yes, the solid rubber outsole provides good traction for general playground activities and gym class.
How do I determine the right size?
These trainers follow standard UK sizing. Measure the child's feet in the afternoon when they are at their largest to ensure a comfortable fit.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather material and compromise the structural integrity of the shoe. Use manual cleaning methods only.
Is the material breathable?
While leather provides durability, it is less breathable than mesh alternatives. It is recommended to wear moisture-wicking socks for all-day comfort.
What should I do if the leather gets wet?
Stuff the shoes with newspaper to help absorb moisture and let them air dry in a well-ventilated area. Avoid radiators or heaters.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty sliding the shoe on
Ensure the heel pull tab is utilized and the laces are fully loosened before stepping into the shoe.
Leather looks dull or scuffed
Use a specialized leather conditioner or a buffing brush to restore the material's natural luster and cover minor scuffs.
Laces coming undone frequently
Double-knot the laces or swap for elastic "no-tie" laces if the child struggles with traditional knots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure the laces are adjusted to accommodate the child's instep height. As these are made of leather, avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for long periods, which can cause fading or stiffness. To clean, use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dust. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for footwear and follow with a protective leather conditioner to prevent cracking. Ensure the shoes are completely air-dried away from direct heat sources if they become wet.
