Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Opening the Shoe: Fully open both riptape straps on each shoe.
- Inserting Foot: Guide your child's foot into the shoe, ensuring their heel is comfortably at the back.
- Adjusting Fit: Fasten the lower riptape strap first, then the upper one. Ensure a snug fit without being too tight, allowing for natural foot movement.
- Check for Comfort: Have your child walk a few steps to confirm the shoes feel comfortable and secure.
Compatibility:
These shoes are designed for kids (age group specified) and are suitable for everyday wear, school, and active play. Their robust construction makes them compatible with a wide range of activities.
Care Instructions:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), which can damage the leather.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Follow the product instructions for application.
- Odor Control: While the Microban lining helps, for extended freshness, occasionally remove insoles (if removable) and air out the shoes. Avoid machine washing.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use.
