FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, it is highly recommended to hand clean these trainers using a soft brush and mild soap to protect the longevity of the Air unit and leather materials.
Do these provide arch support?
The full-length foam midsole provides a level of support suitable for everyday wear, though they are not marketed as medical-grade orthopedic shoes.
Are these trainers waterproof?
While the leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, they are not waterproof and should not be worn in heavy rain or deep puddles.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable, allowing you to swap them for custom orthotics if required.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between the end of the longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for natural foot growth and movement.
Is the Air Max unit prone to popping?
The Max Air unit is highly durable and designed to withstand the rigors of everyday activity; it is very unlikely to pop under normal use.
Troubleshooting
Shoes are squeaking during movement
Check if there is debris under the insole or if the shoes are slightly damp inside. Allow them to air dry thoroughly.
Laces constantly come undone
Ensure the laces are tied with a double knot or look into using runner's loop techniques to secure the knot tighter.
Outer panels showing scuff marks
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a mild eraser sponge for stubborn scuffs on the leather portions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure the laces are adjusted to the child's foot width; the padded collar should feel snug but not restrictive. For maintenance, spot-clean the leather portions with a soft cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the foam and internal adhesives. Periodically check the rubber outsole for debris stuck in the Waffle lugs to maintain optimal grip. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the foam to compress or the materials to warp over time.
