FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for infants who aren't walking yet?
Yes, while designed to support first steps, the cushioned sole and comfortable fit also make them suitable for pre-walkers who are crawling or cruising, offering protection and comfort.
What materials are these trainers made from?
These trainers are crafted from a durable blend of synthetic and textile materials, providing comfort and resilience for infant activities.
How do I choose the correct size for my infant?
It is recommended to measure your infant's foot length and compare it to Nike's sizing chart. Ensure there's about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe for growth.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. For cleaning, please refer to the 'Care & Maintenance' section: wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The lace-up closure allows for some adjustability in fit. However, for specific concerns about wide feet, it's best to try them on your infant to ensure comfort and adequate space.
How durable are these trainers for active infants?
The blend of synthetic and textile materials is chosen for its durability, designed to withstand the typical wear and tear associated with active infants learning to walk and explore.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lace tension. For tightness, loosen laces from the bottom up. For looseness, tighten laces and ensure a secure double knot.
Infant's foot seems uncomfortable or red marks appear
Check sizing to ensure there's enough room for toes to wiggle and for a finger to fit behind the heel. Ensure socks are worn and seams are not rubbing. Consider a larger size if feet have grown.
Laces keep coming undone
Always use a double knot when tying the laces to provide extra security, especially for active infants.
Trainers appear dirty or stained
Wipe down with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For tougher stains, a soft brush can be used gently. Always air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & Sizing
Lacing: Fully unlace the trainers to allow for easy insertion of your infant's foot.
Foot Insertion: Gently guide your infant's foot into the trainer, ensuring the heel is seated comfortably against the back of the shoe.
