Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Start-Rite Tide trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure there is enough space for toes to wiggle comfortably. Since infants grow quickly, check the fit monthly.
- Cleaning: Spot clean the canvas upper with a soft cloth and mild soapy water. Do not submerge the shoes fully in water or use harsh chemical detergents.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Avoid placing the shoes near heaters or radiators, as excessive heat can cause the canvas to stiffen and the rubber adhesives to weaken.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of the blue fabric.
