The Tapa Edge Youth loafer is specifically engineered to meet the demands of a busy school or college day. Its slim, flexible sole allows for natural foot movement, making it comfortable during walks between classes or during extended periods of standing. The low heel provides stability, crucial for active youngsters. The durable black patent leather upper offers a smart, formal look that easily complements school uniforms, while also being tough enough to resist daily wear and tear.
Thanks to the Microban® odour control lining, these loafers maintain freshness throughout the day, a significant benefit for active kids. The padded collar and 'cats tongue' material on the inside heel work together to provide a secure and comfortable fit, minimizing rubbing and preventing the shoe from slipping off, even during brisk movement. This combination of features ensures that the Tapa Edge Youth loafer is a practical, reliable, and stylish choice for daily educational environments.
Initial Wear: Simply slip on the loafers. Ensure your child's foot is comfortably seated within the shoe. There are no laces or buckles to adjust, making them easy to put on and take off.
Sizing: Double-check the size to ensure a snug, yet comfortable fit. The 'cats tongue' material will help secure the heel, but the overall length and width should be appropriate for the foot.
Age Group: Designed for 'older kids,' making them ideal for primary school through to college-aged individuals.
Gender: Classified as 'Unisex,' suitable for all genders.
Occasion: Perfect for school uniforms, formal events, or any setting requiring a smart, classic shoe.
Wear: Suitable for year-round wear thanks to its durable construction and odour control features.
Cleaning Patent Leather: To clean the durable black patent leather, wipe shoes with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For a lasting shine, use a patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly, buffing gently with a soft cloth.
Odour Control: While the Microban® lining helps, allow shoes to air out after wear, especially if worn for extended periods. Remove any insoles if present and let them dry separately if needed.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the patent leather from cracking or discolouring.
General Maintenance: Regularly check the sole for any signs of excessive wear. If wet, allow them to air dry naturally; avoid direct heat.
