FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, it is not recommended to wash leather trainers in a machine, as the water and agitation can damage the leather and the adhesives.
How do I determine the right size for my child?
The Barreda Decode trainers follow standard UK children's sizing. It is recommended to measure your child's foot while they are standing and allow for a small amount of room for growth.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The shoes are designed with a regular fit; if your child has significantly wider feet, you may find them snug.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper of this specific model is constructed from durable leather.
Can the elastic laces be replaced if they break?
While the elastic laces are designed to be permanent, a cobbler or repair shop can often replace them with standard laces if necessary.
Are these shoes appropriate for sports?
These are ideal for general everyday activity and play, though for specialized sports, specific technical footwear may be preferred.
Troubleshooting
The hook-and-loop strap is not sticking securely.
Check the fabric loops for trapped lint, hair, or debris and remove it using a small brush or tweezers.
The leather upper looks dull or scuffed.
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or a shoe polish matching the black color to restore shine and cover minor scuffs.
The interior lining feels damp after use.
Remove the insole if possible and stuff the shoe with newspaper to absorb moisture overnight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, avoid submerging them in water. Instead, wipe the leather exterior with a soft, damp cloth after outdoor use to remove mud or dust. For stubborn stains on the leather, use a mild leather cleaner compatible with athletic footwear. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as intense heat can cause the leather to crack and the adhesive components to degrade. Ensure the hook-and-loop straps are kept free of lint and debris to maintain their stickiness over time.
