FAQs
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
It is recommended to measure your child's foot from heel to the tip of their longest toe while they are standing. Compare this measurement to the brand's sizing chart. The UK 7 Infant size is suitable for a specific foot length; check the Start-rite sizing guide for precise measurements.
Are these shoes suitable for children who are just starting to walk?
Yes, these shoes are specifically designed as 'first walking' styles, offering support and a flexible yet stable sole to aid in developing balance and confidence.
Can the T-bar strap be adjusted for a better fit?
The T-bar itself is fixed, but the overall fit is secured and adjusted using the hook and loop fastening straps across the foot, allowing for customization.
How should I clean the heart detailing?
The heart detailing is part of the leather upper. Clean it gently with a damp cloth as you would the rest of the shoe. Avoid harsh scrubbing that could damage the finish.
What is the main advantage of the wide fitting option?
The wide fitting option provides extra width across the shoe, offering more comfort and a better fit for children with broader feet, reducing pressure points and improving overall wearability.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, these shoes are made from leather and are not designed to be waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions. If they get wet, they should be air-dried naturally.
What is the warranty period for these shoes?
Please refer to the retailer's or manufacturer's warranty information for specific details on the warranty period and coverage for Start-rite products.
Troubleshooting
Shoes seem too tight or uncomfortable
Check if the correct size has been selected. Utilize the wide fitting option if available and appropriate. Ensure the hook and loop fasteners are adjusted correctly, not too tight or too loose.
Leather appears dry or dull
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner specifically designed for children's shoes to restore suppleness and shine. Ensure you are using appropriate cleaning methods.
Hook and loop fastening loses grip
Clean the hook and loop surfaces with a stiff brush or a lint roller to remove any debris that may be preventing a secure closure. Ensure the straps are not excessively worn.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shoes require no assembly and are ready to wear out of the box. They are designed for everyday use with infants and young children. To maintain the quality and appearance of the Start-rite Charms T-bar shoes:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper gently with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not use a tumble dryer or place them near radiators, as this can damage the leather.
- Conditioning: Occasionally, apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent it from drying out. Use a product suitable for children's footwear.
- Fastening: Ensure the hook and loop straps are securely fastened after each wear to maintain the shoe's shape and fit.
