Care Instructions

pediped® footwear is designed to be comfortable and stylish and is made of the highest quality materials. Below are suggested care instructions for your pediped® footwear. Please keep in mind these are mere suggestions; each child will wear pediped® shoes differently and in different situations, calling for a parents judgment for the most appropriate care and protection for the shoes. In rare instances it may be best to consult a professional dry cleaner.

Top Grain Leather

The highest quality eco-leather

To clean: Simply wipe clean with mild soap and water. Baby wipes of any kind will also work.

To protect: Polishing will help prolong their life and may remove unwanted marks, such as scuffs and scrapes.

Suede

The highest quality eco-leather that has been brushed for a special finish.

To clean: A suede eraser can be used to remove marks and is available at shoe stores, mass merchandisers and pharmacies. To use, rub the eraser back and forth over the discolored area until the marks disappear.

To protect: Spray a non-toxic waterproof protectant onto NEW shoes to extend the life of the shoes and make them easier to clean.

Nubuck

The highest quality eco-leather that has been shaved to be smoother than suede.

To clean: Due to the soft, velvety nature of nubuck, marks or color transfers may occur. Fortunately, if marks or color transfers do occur, they are easily removed with a suede or nubuck eraser. Simply rub the eraser back and forth over the discolored area until the marks disappear. Suede or nubuck erasers are available at shoe stores, mass merchandisers and pharmacies. 

To protect: Spray your NEW shoes with a non-toxic waterproof protectant. This simple spray-on process will extend the life of your shoes and make them easier to clean.

Fabric

Variety of textiles in many different patterns and colors.

To clean: Rub gently with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow to air dry.

To protect: Spray your NEW shoes with a non-toxic waterproof protectant. This simple spray-on process will extend the life of your shoes and make them easier to clean later.

Machine Washable

To clean: Simply remove all insoles and place shoes in the washing machine. For best results, wash shoes alone in cold water, on gentle cycle. Do not add bleach; use regular detergent. Allow shoes to air dry with Velcro open (away from sunlight) before re-inserting insoles. Do not put shoes in the dryer.

Please Note: not all pediped® footwear is machine washable. Look for the Machine Washable symbol to determine if the shoe is machine washable.
