FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The shoes are designed for standard fits, but the adjustable riptape strap allows for some customization for different foot volumes.
How often should I clean the interior lining?
While the Agion lining is antimicrobial, it is recommended to air out the shoes overnight to allow moisture to evaporate completely.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the patent finish and the structural integrity of the shoe. Use manual cleaning methods only.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper is constructed from high-quality, durable patent leather.
Do the heart details wear off quickly?
The detailing is designed for durability; however, extreme scraping against hard surfaces may affect the cosmetic appearance over time.
Is the sole non-marking?
Yes, the rubber outsole is designed to provide grip without leaving scuffs on indoor surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Riptape strap is not sticking securely
Check for lint or debris caught in the hook-and-loop fabric and remove it with a clean pair of tweezers or a stiff-bristled brush.
Patent finish appears dull
Apply a small amount of patent-specific leather cleaner or a dab of petroleum jelly with a soft cloth and buff gently to restore the shine.
Shoes causing discomfort
Check for small pebbles or debris inside the shoe and ensure the child is wearing appropriate thickness socks to allow for proper break-in.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the right fit is crucial for growing children; ensure there is adequate room at the toes while the riptape remains snug across the midfoot. To maintain the patent leather, wipe the surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove grit that can cause scratches. Avoid using abrasive brushes or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can dull the shiny finish. If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the material from cracking or warping.
