Full details
These Skechers Bounder - Quantarun trainers are designed for active kids needing durable, comfortable, and supportive footwear for training and everyday wear. Their key benefit is the combination of athletic style with adaptive closure for a secure, easy fit, though they may offer less ankle support than traditional lace-up shoes for very high-impact sports.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running competitions?
These trainers are designed for everyday wear and light training activities. For serious running competitions, specialized running shoes with advanced support and cushioning might be more appropriate.
How do I know if I've selected the correct size?
Ensure there is a small amount of space (about a thumb's width) between the longest toe and the front of the shoe when the child is standing. The heel should not slip excessively when walking.
Can the stretch laces be replaced?
The stretch laces are fixed and not designed to be replaced. The adaptive closure system relies on these laces in combination with the adjustable strap.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The trainers feature a mesh and synthetic upper, which provides breathability but is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions.
What is the main advantage of the adaptive closure system?
The adaptive closure system combines fixed stretch laces and an adjustable instep strap, making the shoes easy for children to put on and take off independently while providing a secure and customizable fit.
How often should I clean the trainers?
Clean the trainers as needed, depending on usage. Regular wiping with a damp cloth after play can help maintain their appearance. Deep cleaning should be done when visibly dirty.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose
Adjust the instep strap for a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure the correct size was purchased, as foot size can change.
Difficulty getting foot into the shoe
Loosen the instep strap fully. Ensure the heel of the shoe is pushed down firmly as the foot is inserted. Wiggle the foot gently.
Mesh upper looks dirty or stained
Gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with a clean damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely.
Insole smells after use
Remove the insole and allow it to air out in a well-ventilated area. For persistent odors, hand wash the insole with mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure the correct size is selected for a comfortable fit. Adjust the instep strap for optimal security.
Compatibility: Suitable for general athletic activities, training, and everyday casual wear for kids. Recommended for use on various surfaces including pavement, grass, and indoor flooring.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the mesh and synthetic upper. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Cleaning the Insole: The cushioned insole can often be removed. Hand wash gently with mild soap and water, then allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a brush or damp cloth to clean the outsole. Stubborn dirt can be removed with a damp cloth and mild soap.
- Drying: Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
