FAQs

What age group are these trainers suitable for?

These trainers are specifically designed for the infant age group, ideal for babies from crawling to their early walking stages.

How do the elastic laces work?

The elastic laces are designed to stretch, allowing the collar of the shoe to open wider. This makes it easier to slide your baby's foot in and out quickly.

Are these shoes good for new walkers?

Yes, their 'super bendy' construction is designed to be highly flexible, supporting the natural movement and development of tiny feet, which is beneficial for new walkers.

What materials are used in these trainers?

The trainers feature a velvety suede upper, a synthetic lining for comfort, and a durable rubber outsole for grip.

How should I clean the suede material?

For best results, use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove dirt. A suede eraser can help with scuffs. Avoid excessive water or harsh cleaning agents. Consider a suede protectant spray.

Do these trainers run true to size?

They feature a 'regular fit', which generally means they align with standard infant shoe sizing. However, it's always best to measure your infant's foot and refer to a size guide if available.

Troubleshooting

Shoes seem difficult to put on infant's foot.

Ensure you fully stretch the elastic laces and collar opening. Wiggle your infant's foot gently, guiding their heel into place first. A thin sock can also help reduce friction.

Suede upper appears dirty or scuffed.

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper marks, try a suede eraser. For tough stains, a professional suede cleaner may be needed. Avoid harsh scrubbing which can damage the suede.

Infant's foot seems uncomfortable or rubs inside the shoe.

First, check the sizing to ensure it's correct for your infant's current foot length. Ensure socks are smooth and not bunched up. The regular fit should provide comfort, but every foot is different.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Putting on the trainers is simple: fully utilize the elastic lace closure to stretch open the shoe's collar. Gently slide your infant's foot in, ensuring their toes have enough space to wiggle comfortably without being cramped. The regular fit is designed to accommodate most infant foot shapes.

Compatibility

These trainers are specifically designed for infant age groups, making them suitable for babies from crawling to early walking stages. Their super bendy nature is compatible with the needs of developing feet, allowing for natural movement and flexibility.

Care

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of the suede material:

  • Cleaning Suede: Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust. For minor scuffs or stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, as suede can be sensitive to moisture.
  • Spot Cleaning: For light marks, use a damp cloth (not wet) with a small amount of mild soap, dabbing gently rather than rubbing. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  • Protection: Consider using a suede protectant spray (designed for footwear) to help repel water and stains, especially if your infant will wear them outdoors frequently.
  • Drying: If the trainers get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation.
