FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the foam cushioning. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology?

The rearfoot GEL technology is designed to absorb shock during the impact phase of walking or running, protecting the foot from stress.

Are these suitable for sports?

They are excellent for general physical education and daily activities, though they are classified as lifestyle trainers.

Do they provide good arch support?

The structure provided by the synthetic leather overlays offers decent stability, suitable for most developmental foot shapes.

How should I store them when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the materials and colors to fade over time.

Troubleshooting

Trainer feels too tight across the midfoot

Loosen the lacing system starting from the eyelets closest to the toe to allow for more volume.

Accumulated dirt in the mesh pores

Use a soft-bristle brush to gently dislodge dry debris after the material has dried.

Slipping at the heel

Ensure the shoe is tied securely and consider using the top lace hole for a runner's loop lock.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable synthetic leather overlays increase longevity
  • Effective shock absorption via rearfoot GEL technology
  • Stylish Black and Grey colorway suits most casual outfits
  • Secure fit provided by the well-padded collar
  • Excellent traction for everyday activities

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers are designed for a standard fit consistent with UK children's sizing. To maintain the condition of the shoes, avoid machine washing; instead, wipe down the synthetic leather and mesh surfaces with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry the shoes at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the foam cushioning and adhesives from degrading. Always loosen the laces fully when putting on or taking off the shoes to protect the integrity of the heel counter and padded collar.
