Troubleshooting

Trainers are difficult to put on my infant's feet.

Ensure you are fully utilizing the stretch of the elastic laces. The collar is designed to open wide. If necessary, gently hold the heel tab while guiding the foot in, or try putting on a thin sock first to reduce friction.

Suede material looks dirty or scuffed after play.

Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove loose dirt. For scuffs, carefully rub in one direction. For stains, a slightly damp cloth with water or a specialized suede cleaner can be blotted onto the area, then allowed to air dry completely.

My infant's feet seem uncomfortable or hot.

Check the sizing to ensure the trainers aren't too small or too large. Ensure the infant is wearing appropriate socks (not too thick for the fit, or too thin if friction is an issue). The suede offers breathability, but monitor for signs of discomfort, especially in very warm weather.

Care Instructions

To keep your suede trainers looking their best and prolong their lifespan:

  1. Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt or scuffs, use a soft suede brush or a clean, dry cloth to gently brush away debris.
  2. Damp Cloth: For tougher spots, lightly dampen a clean cloth with water (or a specialized suede cleaner if available) and gently blot the affected area. *Avoid oversaturating the suede.*
  3. Air Dry: Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage the suede.
  4. Avoid Immersion: Do not machine wash or submerge the trainers in water.
  5. Protection (Optional): Consider using a suede protector spray for added resistance against stains and moisture. *Always test on an inconspicuous area first.*
