Non-marking soles for children’s slippers: how to check

Some schools ask for indoor shoes that do not leave scuffs. “Non-marking” describes how a sole behaves on a floor; its colour alone is not proof. Check your school’s own rules.

A simple check

Clean dust off the sole. Gently rub a clean edge on white paper placed on a firm surface. A visible mark is a reason to ask the seller. No mark is only an indication: results can differ with the floor and conditions.

Check fit too

A non-marking sole does not guarantee grip. Check that the slipper stays on the heel, does not squeeze the toes and allows movement. Compare the size guide and availability for the selected size.

Explore children’s slippers and, for example, Fireman model; compare measurements with the size guide.
