These HOH kids' sneakers are super easy to use. Just open the velcro strap and slip your child's foot in. The elastic laces will keep the shoe snug without any hassle of tying. When it comes to maintenance, you can use a damp cloth to wipe off any dirt on the microfiber surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the material. For the sole, a simple scrub with a soft brush under running water will do. Make sure to let the shoes dry naturally in a well - ventilated area. And always check the fit regularly as your child's feet grow.
