FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for competitive running?

The Karrimor Duma 6 are entry-level running shoes, best suited for casual running, training, and everyday active wear. They may not offer the advanced support or features required for competitive athletics.

How do I choose the correct size?

Refer to the sizing guide provided by the retailer. Ensure there is a small amount of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing.

Can these shoes be worn by girls?

While marketed for boys, the design and functionality are suitable for any child who requires a comfortable, entry-level running shoe. Fit and personal preference are key.

What is the benefit of the seamless knitted upper?

The seamless construction reduces the risk of irritation or blisters caused by internal seams rubbing against the foot. It also contributes to the shoe's durability and flexibility.

How much cushioning do these shoes offer?

They feature an EVA insole and a phylon midsole, providing a good level of cushioning for comfort during light activities. This is designed for entry-level users.

Are they waterproof?

No, these shoes are not waterproof. They are designed for running and general wear and are made from materials that are breathable but not designed to repel water.

What is the lifespan of these shoes?

The lifespan depends on usage frequency and intensity. For regular use by an active child, they are typically expected to last several months to a year, with the seamless upper contributing to durability.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces, ensure the foot is positioned correctly, and re-tie them more loosely. Check if the size is appropriate.

Laces come undone frequently

Tie a double knot when lacing the shoes. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.

Traction seems poor on wet surfaces

Clean the outsole to remove any mud or debris. Note that rubber grip may be reduced on very wet or smooth surfaces.

Discomfort during wear

Ensure socks are worn. Check for any internal stitching or material issues. Allow a break-in period if the shoes are new.
