FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for school use?

Yes, their durable leather construction and neutral grey colour make them a practical and stylish choice for most school environments.

Can these be machine washed?

No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives. Please follow the manual cleaning instructions provided.

How do I determine the right size?

The model is listed in UK sizing. We recommend measuring the child's foot length and comparing it to the standard Vans size chart.

Is the leather material sustainable?

Yes, the leather is sourced from environmentally-certified tanneries, ensuring high production standards.

Do the straps wear out over time?

While durable, the hook and loop material can collect debris. Regular cleaning will help maintain the fastener's strength for the life of the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Straps are not sticking securely

Check the hook and loop area for lint or debris and remove it using a stiff brush or tweezers.

Leather surface looks dull or scuffed

Apply a small amount of neutral leather cream or conditioner to restore the finish and buff with a soft cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal longevity, avoid machine washing these leather shoes, as excessive water exposure can damage the material. To clean, use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt from the surface, followed by a damp cloth with mild leather cleaner for stubborn spots. Ensure the shoes are air-dried away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking. Check the hook and loop closures periodically for debris, such as lint or grass, to ensure the fastener maintains its grip strength.
