Sondico Blaze Childrens Astro Turf Trainers - Grey - 13

These trainers are specifically designed and optimized for astro turf and other artificial grass playing surfaces.

Wipe the synthetic leather upper with a damp cloth after each use to remove dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution. Allow to air dry naturally.

Info needed: The product description does not specify if these trainers are waterproof. They are designed for sports use, so some level of water resistance for splashes is typical, but they are unlikely to be fully waterproof for prolonged wet conditions.

Ensure your child tries them on with the type of socks they typically wear for sports. There should be a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the trainer, and the heel should feel secure without slipping.

While comfortable, these trainers are designed for sports performance on astro turf. Their specialized sole pattern may wear down quicker on hard surfaces like pavement and may not offer the same comfort as everyday shoes.

Moulded lugs refer to the raised patterns or studs on the rubber outsole. These are specifically shaped and positioned to provide optimal grip and traction on artificial grass surfaces, helping prevent slips and enhance agility.

Yes, the knitted ankle and tongue are designed to provide a soft, snug, and comfortable fit around the ankle, offering support without restricting movement.

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. Check the moulded lugs for excessive wear; if worn smooth, it might be time for new trainers.

Adjust the lacing system to ensure it's secure but not too tight. Make sure the child is wearing appropriate sports socks. Verify the size is correct; trainers that are too big or too small can cause discomfort.

Like all new footwear, these trainers may require a break-in period. Encourage short periods of wear around the house before extensive play to allow them to conform to the foot.

Clean promptly after each use with a damp cloth and mild soap. For scuffs, a specialized synthetic leather cleaner might help, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.
