FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The double Velcro closure allows for some adjustability, which can accommodate slightly wider feet. However, they are designed as a standard fit, so if your child has exceptionally wide feet, it's recommended to try them on first.
How do I clean the blue suede material?
For best results, use a suede brush to remove dirt and maintain the texture. For stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth can be used carefully. Avoid excessive water.
What is the outsole made of?
The outsole is made of rubber, featuring Vans' signature Original Waffle pattern for enhanced grip and durability.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole offers some protection, the suede and canvas upper are not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. They are best suited for dry conditions.
What is the main benefit of the double Velcro closure?
The double Velcro closure allows for a more secure and customizable fit, and it makes the shoes very easy for toddlers to put on and take off independently.
Are there other color options available?
While this specific model is blue, Vans offers the Ward series in various colors and styles for different age groups. Please check product listings for available options.
Troubleshooting
Velcro not sticking well
Ensure the Velcro surfaces are clean and free of lint or debris. Rub the hook and loop sides together firmly to re-establish adhesion.
Shoes appear dirty after light use
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, focusing on the affected area. For suede, use a dedicated suede cleaner or brush.
Child complains of discomfort
Check that the shoe is the correct size and width. Ensure the Velcro straps are adjusted properly, not too tight or too loose. Allow a short break-in period if the shoes are new.
