FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for school sports?
Yes, the ABZORB cushioning and stability features make them appropriate for general school activities and recess.
How do I determine the right size for my child?
We recommend measuring the child's foot in the afternoon when it is at its largest and allowing for a small gap in the toe box.
Are the laces removable?
Yes, the laces are standard and can be replaced if they become frayed or if you prefer a different color.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity of the leather and the cushioning components. Spot cleaning is recommended.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed primarily from leather, providing durability and a premium feel.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty keeping laces tied
Use a double knot or replace with elastic laces if the child struggles with traditional tying.
Outer sole traction feels slippery on wet surfaces
Wipe the diamond-pattern rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove buildup that clogs the traction grooves.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers come with standard lacing for an adjustable, secure fit. To ensure they stay in top condition:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried dirt. Since these are leather, wipe them with a slightly damp cloth and avoid submerging them in water.
- Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the midsole or crack the leather.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material fading.
- Sizing: Ensure a thumb-width of space between the big toe and the end of the shoe for healthy growth.
