Is Soft PVC Safe for Daily Wear on Shoes?

Yes. This shoe charm is made from Soft PVC (polyvinyl chloride with phthalate-free plasticizers), a material widely used in toys, accessories, and footwear decorations. It is soft to the touch — similar to a thick rubber eraser — and has no sharp edges or hard corners. The material is non-toxic and complies with international safety standards for everyday handling on shoes.

Physical Properties of Soft PVC

Durability Highlights

Colors are molded in, not painted on — The bright green, black, white, and eye details are all injected into the same mold at different cavity points. No paint to peel, no coating to scratch off.

Tear-resistant body — The PVC compound is formulated for flexibility without brittleness. Squeeze, twist, or bend the charm slightly — it bounces right back.

Snap button stem is mechanically embedded during the molding process — No glue, no exposed metal, and zero risk of detachment under normal walking conditions.

The Soft PVC material is fully waterproof — Withstands rain, mud, puddles, and outdoor conditions without degradation.

The snap button has been tested for 10,000+ insertion/removal cycles — Maintaining secure hold without loosening.

Everyday wear performance — The matte finish hides minor scuffs well. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.

What is the minimum order quantity for a custom PVC shoe charm like this?

For a brand-new custom design (your own character shape), the MOQ is 300 pieces per design. If you want to use our existing frog shape but change colors, the MOQ is 500 pieces. For just adding a printed logo to a stock design, the MOQ is as low as 200 pieces.

Will this charm fit my Crocs or other clog-style shoes?

Yes. The snap button stem is designed to fit standard ventilation holes found on Crocs, sandals, slides, and most perforated foam clogs. The stem diameter is approximately 8 – 10 mm, compatible with the standard hole size. If your shoe has smaller or larger holes, we can adjust the stem size accordingly.

How long does a sample take to arrive?

Once artwork is approved, we create the sample mold in 5 – 7 working days and ship via DHL/FedEx. International delivery takes 3 – 7 working days. Total from artwork approval to sample in hand: roughly 10 – 14 working days.

Can I get this charm in different sizes?

Yes. The standard size is around 1.8" (45 mm). We can adjust height from 1.2" (30 mm) up to 4.7" (120 mm). Larger sizes require more material and a larger mold, increasing both mold fee and unit cost.

How do I attach and remove the charm?

Push the stem through the shoe hole from the front, then press the textured back button onto the protruding stem until it clicks into place. To remove, simply pull the back button off from the inside of the shoe and slide the charm out. No tools required — it takes about 2 seconds per charm.

Will the charm fall off while walking?

No. The snap button mechanism is designed to hold securely during normal walking, running, and daily activities. It has been tested for 10,000+ insertion/removal cycles. However, for aggressive sports or activities with high lateral force, we recommend removing charms beforehand.

Is this shoe charm safe for children?

Yes, with supervision. The Soft PVC material is non-toxic and phthalate-free, meeting REACH and RoHS standards. The charm has no small detachable parts. However, the snap button is a small component — supervision is recommended for children under 3.

How do the colors hold up over time?

Colors are injected into the material (not painted) — they will not peel, flake, or wash off. Under normal indoor use, colors stay vibrant for 2 – 3 years. UV-resistant additive packages are available on request for outdoor-heavy usage.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept T/T bank transfer (30% deposit + 70% balance), L/C at sight above $5,000, Western Union for samples, and PayPal for orders under $3,000. Net 30-day terms available for established customers on orders over $10,000.

What if there is a quality issue after delivery?

We offer a 6-month quality guarantee. If the charm shows material defects within 6 months of delivery, we replace defective units free of charge. Intentional damage or extreme heat exposure is excluded.
