GEOX CASEY B Girls Patent Mary Jane School Shoes - Black, UK 4 / EUR 37

No, the Geox Casey B shoes are described as 'Shower Proof,' meaning they offer protection against light rain and splashes. They are not designed to be fully waterproof or submerged in water.

The upper material is synthetic with a patent finish. The lining material is fabric, and the insole is made from non-toxic, chrome-free leather.

Yes, the insole is removable. For washing, it's recommended to gently wipe it with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow it to air dry completely. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

These shoes are designed with a 'Regular' shoe width. For children with particularly wide feet, it's recommended to check Geox's specific 'W' (wide) fittings or consult a sizing guide, as a regular width might feel too snug.

The Geox Casey B features a 'Flat' heel, meaning it is under 2.5cm, providing comfort and stability for active children.

To maintain the patent shine, regularly wipe the shoes with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. For extra shine, you can use a specialized patent leather cleaner or conditioner, applied sparingly with a soft cloth.

The antibacterial insole helps to inhibit the growth of bacteria that cause unpleasant odors, contributing to better foot hygiene and freshness throughout the day.

Ensure the touch-fasten strap is not overtightened. Check if the child is wearing appropriate socks. Consider if the shoe size is correct; an accurate foot measurement may be helpful. The removable insole also allows for fitting adjustments.

Check the riptape fastening for lint, dirt, or debris that might be preventing a strong grip. Clean the hook-and-loop fasteners with a stiff brush or tweezer to remove any trapped material. Ensure the strap is aligned properly when fastened.

Utilize the antibacterial properties of the insole by allowing shoes to air out regularly. Remove the insoles periodically to air them separately. If necessary, gently wipe the insoles with a mild antibacterial shoe spray or solution and allow them to dry completely.

For light scuffs, try gently rubbing with a soft, damp cloth or a specialized patent leather cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials. For deeper scratches, patent leather repair kits might offer a solution, though prevention is key. Store shoes carefully to avoid rubbing against other items.

While the Geox system significantly enhances breathability, factors like very thick socks, prolonged extreme activity, or individual physiology can still lead to some moisture. Ensure breathable socks are worn and allow shoes to air out thoroughly after each wear. The removable insole can also be aired or wiped down.
