FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These sneakers are designed for casual wear and everyday activities. They are not specialized athletic shoes and may not provide the necessary support or protection for high-impact sports.
How do I ensure the correct fit?
Measure your child's foot from heel to toe and compare it to the Vans size chart. Ensure there is a small amount of growing room, but the shoe should not be too large, as this can cause discomfort and tripping hazards. The Velcro straps help adjust the fit.
Can these shoes be washed in a machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the suede, and affect the sole's integrity.
What is the benefit of the waffle tread?
The waffle tread provides excellent traction and grip on various surfaces, helping to prevent slips and falls.
How often should I clean the suede?
Regular brushing to remove surface dirt is recommended. Deeper cleaning should be done as needed when stains appear or the shoes look visibly dirty.
What other colors are available in this model?
This particular model, the Ward V, is available in various colors, including blue and pink options, often with black or white accents, in different UK child sizes.
Troubleshooting
Velcro not sticking well
Ensure the Velcro strips are clean and free of debris. Rub the hook and loop sides together firmly to re-establish their grip.
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a specialized suede cleaner or a stiff brush for dry dirt. For stains, test a mild soap and water solution on an inconspicuous area first, then clean gently with a damp cloth.
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure the correct size has been purchased. Loosen the Velcro straps as much as possible before putting them on and refasten securely but not overly tight.
