FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?
Yes, they are designed specifically for the daily demands of school routines, including classroom learning and playground play.
How do I know if they fit my child correctly?
There should be about a thumb's width of space at the front, and the heel should not slip when walking.
Can these be machine washed?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the structure of the shoe. Please use hand-cleaning methods only.
What material is used for the upper?
The upper is constructed from high-quality leather to provide a balance of durability and comfort.
Is the sole non-marking?
The sole is designed for versatility, though it is best to check specific school gym requirements if you intend to use them for indoor sports.
Troubleshooting
Rip-tape straps not sticking securely
Clean the hook-and-loop fabric with a small brush or tweezers to remove lint and debris.
Leather looks scuffed or faded
Apply a matching black leather polish to restore the color and buff with a soft cloth.
Internal moisture accumulation
Ensure the shoes are aired out overnight to allow the breathable lining to dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the Start-Rite Action Low Shoes, perform the following steps for maintenance and care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt after daily use. Use a leather cleaner or polish occasionally to maintain the black finish and prevent the material from drying out.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Ensure the rip-tape straps are fastened to maintain their adhesive integrity.
- Fit Check: Regularly monitor the size as children grow, ensuring there is sufficient room at the front for toe movement without heel slippage.
