Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The elastic lace system is pre-configured for a snug fit out of the box. Simply slip the shoe over the infant's foot, ensuring the tongue is centered.
Compatibility: These shoes are sized for infants and should be worn with thin, breathable cotton socks to optimize fit and moisture management.
Care: To keep the leather clean, wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth or a mild leather-safe cleaner after outdoor use. Do not submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the leather and adhesive integrity. Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources to prevent material cracking.
