Product Information
Full details
These Vans Ward trainers in blue are designed for toddlers, offering a blend of iconic style and practical features. The key benefit is the double Velcro closure, making them easy for little ones to put on and take off independently. A potential caveat is that while designed for toddlers, the UK size 4 may be a specific fit for children within that age range. Key features include the classic Sidestripe, durable vulcanized construction, and a grippy original waffle outsole.

Troubleshooting
Velcro not sticking properly
Ensure the Velcro surfaces are clean and free of lint or debris. Gently brush the Velcro hooks and loops with a clean toothbrush.
Shoes appear to be a tight fit
Check the size against the child's foot measurement. If the size is correct according to the chart, the shoe may have a narrower fit. Consider if the child's foot has a wider profile.
Outsole losing grip
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or residue that might be affecting traction.
