Troubleshooting
Visible scuff marks on the leather surface
Use a specialized leather eraser or a soft cloth with a tiny amount of leather conditioner to buff out superficial marks.
Build-up of dirt in the circular traction pattern
Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently dislodge trapped dirt and gravel from the outsole grooves.
Creasing at the toe box
This is a natural occurrence in leather footwear; using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of these trainers, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from drying out. Compatibility is straightforward: the shoes are designed for standard sizing, but it is recommended to check your child's current UK size against the 5.5 UK fit. For maintenance, wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the material finish. For deep cleaning, use a specialized leather-safe cleaner and a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris from the traction pattern grooves.
