What materials are used in the construction of these shoes?

Do I need to treat the leather before my toddler wears them?
While not strictly required, applying a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather can help protect the white finish from dirt and moisture.
How often should I check my toddler's shoe size?
Toddlers' feet grow rapidly. It's recommended to check their shoe size every 2-3 months to ensure a proper and comfortable fit.
Troubleshooting
White leather quickly looks dirty.
Clean scuffs and dirt marks promptly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Regular, gentle wiping prevents stains from setting in.
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Ensure the classic laces are adjusted correctly for a snug, yet comfortable fit. Re-measure your toddler's foot regularly, as their feet grow quickly, to ensure they are wearing the correct size.
Laces frequently come undone.
Always tie a secure double knot, especially for very active toddlers. You can also explore different lacing techniques for better retention.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped inside or between layers of the shoe. Allow the shoes to air dry completely. If the sound persists, check the insole for proper placement.

Care & Maintenance: Keeping Them Pristine
To keep your white Nike Dunk Low sneakers looking their best:
- Regular Cleaning: Gently wipe down the real and synthetic leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth immediately after any visible dirt or scuffs appear. A small amount of mild soap can be used for tougher spots.
- Spot Treatment: For stubborn marks, use a sneaker-specific cleaner designed for leather. Apply sparingly to a clean cloth, not directly to the shoe.
- Avoid Submersion: Do not machine wash or submerge the shoes in water, as this can damage the leather and adhesive.
- Drying: Air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather to provide an extra layer of protection, particularly for white shoes.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material degradation.
