Why SKEANIE? Our flexible-soled, lightweight baby and toddler first/pre walker boots have been approved by Podiatrists and earned the Seal of Acceptance from the American Podiatric Medical Assoc. (APMA). Podiatrists and Paediatricians agree: these shoes are the way to go for your tot!

Did you know? Babies' feet are far more delicate than adults', with a structure that doesn't fully harden until 13! And yet, these precious little feet take three times as much stress and even sweat twice as much as an adult's - making quality shoes essential for their comfort and growth.

Protect your SKEANIE baby & toddler first/pre walker boots with a water and stain repellent spray before wearing. To keep them looking their best, wipe down with a damp tissue or leather wipe. Applying leather conditioner and renovating polish will help retain their softness and colour. Never put your SKEANIE first/pre walker boots in the washing machine or dryer.

• Ensure your child’s foot is relaxed before measuring.
• Measure towards the end of the day to ensure foot is at it’s largest.
• Place your child’s foot on a piece of paper
• Draw a line at the heel and at the big toe - measure the foot length in mm.
• DO NOT add to your child’s foot length as wriggle room has been factored in.
• Whilst we have tried our best to make our sizing guide as accurate as possible, the sizing of our shoes may vary slightly between designs.
• *Approx. Age - please note that this is an approximate only and we cannot guarantee that the size will fit the approximate age bracket. We recommend using the Maximum Foot Length measurement.

SKEANIE leather shoes and boots are thoughtfully designed for growing feet. Handcrafted from soft, breathable leather and featuring flexible rubber or suede soles, our footwear is podiatrist-approved and supports natural foot development.

Because we use soft, high-quality leather, SKEANIE shoes are best worn as dress shoes or for special occasions. While they’re made to move—walking, playing, even running—they’re not made for rough, wet, or extreme conditions.

Leather Shoe Care
Keep Their First Shoes Looking Beautiful

To help your SKEANIE shoes stay stylish, comfortable, and long-lasting, follow our simple care guide:

What to Avoid:

• Getting the shoes wet or muddy
• Using them as bike or scooter brakes
• Kicking balls or rough play on concrete
• Walking through dirt, sand, or uneven terrain
• Machine washing or tumble drying

General Shoe Care Tips:

• Spray with a gentle water and stain repellent before first use
• Wipe clean with a damp cloth or leather-safe wipe after each wear
• Apply leather conditioner and renovating polish to maintain softness and colour
• Store in a cool, dry place when not in use

Dealing with Scuffing on Soft Leather

Scuffing is natural with soft leather shoes—especially on rough surfaces. While it doesn’t damage the integrity of the shoe, it can affect the appearance. Here’s how to reduce and repair scuff marks:

• Use a colour-matched polish to touch up visible marks
• Apply a leather conditioner regularly to nourish and restore the leather
• Avoid dragging toes or scraping against pavement
• Reserve shoes for clean, dry surfaces where possible

Caring for Metallic Leather Shoes

Metallic leather shoes, like our beautiful Mary-Jane styles in Gold and Silver, require extra care. These finishes are created using a heat-bonded foil that cannot be reapplied once scratched.

To clean and maintain metallic leather:

• Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth
• Buff regularly with a dry, soft cloth to restore shine
• Use a small amount of Renovating Polish if needed, applied with a cloth in light, even strokes

Please tread carefully with metallics to preserve their delicate finish.

A Final Word on SKEANIE Shoe Care

Your baby’s first shoes hold precious memories—first steps, little adventures, growing confidence. With the right care, SKEANIE leather shoes can stay beautiful and functional, supporting your little one every step of the way.

Treat them well, and they’ll last well beyond their first walk.
