Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for your child's foot. Adjust lacing to provide a snug but comfortable fit. If persistently uncomfortable, consider a different size or model.
Color transfer onto socks or clothing
This can sometimes occur with new, brightly colored footwear. Wear with darker socks initially. If it persists after light wear, ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing.
Surface scuffs or marks
Gently clean the affected area with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, a sneaker cleaning eraser might be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
