Product Information
Full details
The Pom d'Api Dory Ballet Flats are designed for young girls who require a blend of sophistication and everyday functionality. These flats provide a secure, supportive fit that is particularly beneficial for children with narrower feet, ensuring comfort during long days of wear. While these shoes are crafted from high-quality leather and feature a durable sole, they are best suited for casual or semi-formal use rather than heavy outdoor athletic activity.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for school wear?
Yes, their classic brown design and durable construction make them a popular choice for school environments.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
We recommend using a standard UK children's shoe gauge to measure the child's foot length while they are standing.
Can these be worn without socks?
The interior is lined with leather, making them comfortable for wear with or without socks, though socks are recommended for hygiene and moisture control.
Are they machine washable?
No, you should never put leather shoes in a washing machine. Clean them by hand using a damp cloth and mild leather care products.
Do they provide arch support?
The shoes feature a comfortable insole designed for general daily support, though they are not marketed as orthotic medical devices.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface shows scuff marks
Gently rub the scuff with a soft cloth and a small amount of leather conditioner or a color-matched leather polish.
The shoe feels slightly too tight
If the fit is only marginally tight, ensure the child is wearing appropriate hosiery; otherwise, consider sizing up if the child is between sizes.
Sole is becoming slippery
Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated debris or polish that may have transferred from other surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Sizing: These shoes follow standard UK children's sizing. Ensure you measure the child's foot with a professional gauge to achieve the optimal fit for the narrow-friendly design.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dust or light dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
- Maintenance: For optimal results, apply a neutral leather conditioner occasionally to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from warping.
