When trying on your CARIUMAs for the first time (to test fit & comfort), please make sure to only wear them inside on a clean floor. If you plan to return them (or think there’s a slight chance you might need to exchange them), we ask that you refrain from wearing them outside. This eliminates the possibility of dirt, grime, etc. We cannot accept any sneakers that have been worn down, disheveled, washed or altered in any way.
*We reserve the right to not accept returns that are not in line with our return policy.

PRODUCT & FIT
How do I find my size?
We know how important it is to find your perfect fit. Here are a few helpful hints to size your sneaker just right.
How do I take care of my shoes?
Canvas:
- Hand-wash your sneakers with a brush or an old kitchen towel (to reach in between grooves) with neutral soap & cold water.
- Do not machine wash or dry.
Suede:
- Keep them away from water, and try a little TLC. Treat stains by hand using an eraser to rub away any marks, or use a brush or soft cloth to reach in between grooves. Brush away dirt in circular motions, whilst alternating direction (for tough stains, use a damp, clean cloth and dry the area with a hair dryer to remove any moisture).
- Do not machine wash or dry.
Leather:
- Prep your shoe: Remove and soak the laces in warm water with baking soda, and set aside. With your damp cloth, gently wipe down the exterior of the entire shoe to remove dirt on the surface of the shoe. Let dry.
- Build up a soap lather using your cloth. Massage the soapy lather in small, gentle circles all over the leather upper to remove dirt. Wipe away, then repeat if necessary. Let shoes and laces dry completely.
- Do not machine wash or dry.
Plaid:
- Use a soft brush to brush any dust/stain that arises.
- Do not machine wash or dry.

KIDS
What sizes are available for kids' shoes?
We offer a wide range of sizes for kids' shoes, starting from toddler sizes all the way up to youth sizes. Please refer to our size chart for more details.
How do I determine the correct shoe size for my child?
To determine the correct shoe size for your child, we recommend measuring their feet using a ruler or a measuring tape. You can then refer to our size chart to find the corresponding size.
Are the shoes true to size, or do they run small or large?
Our shoes are designed to be true to size. However, we recommend checking the individual product descriptions for any specific sizing information or customer reviews regarding fit. Tip: If your child is between sizes, round up. Y2 and up can also shop our adult sizes.
Can I return or exchange the shoes if they don't fit?
Yes, we have a hassle-free return and exchange policy. If the shoes don't fit your child properly, you can return or exchange them within 30 days of purchase. Please refer to our return policy for more details.
Are the shoes suitable for both boys and girls?
Absolutely! Our collection of kids' shoes is suitable for both boys and girls. We offer a variety of styles and colours that cater to all preferences.
How can I clean and care for the shoes?
Hand-wash sneakers with a brush or an old kitchen towel (to reach in between grooves) with neutral soap & cold water. *Pro tip: A repurposed toothbrush or an old T-shirt work like a charm!
