FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as it can damage the cupsole and synthetic upper. Manual cleaning is best.
Do these shoes provide arch support?
They feature a comfortable textile sockliner which provides basic cushioning, though it is not orthotic-grade support.
Can these be used for actual basketball games?
They are inspired by basketball aesthetics and offer great stability for casual play, but are designed primarily as lifestyle trainers.
How do I ensure the right size for my child?
We recommend measuring the child's foot using a standard sizing gauge or standing on a piece of paper to mark the heel and longest toe to compare against a UK size chart.
Are they water-resistant?
The synthetic upper offers some protection against light moisture, but they are not fully waterproof.
What is the difference between the 'Mid' and 'Classic' series?
The 'Mid' refers to the height of the collar, providing more ankle coverage, while the 'Classic' series denotes the heritage design style.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone during activity
Use a double-knot or tuck the ends under the laces to prevent them from catching on debris.
Scuff marks on the white synthetic surface
Use a magic eraser or a soft cloth with a mixture of water and gentle soap to gently buff away surface marks.
Smell developing after heavy use
Remove the inserts to air them out, and use a specialized shoe deodorizing spray or baking soda sachets overnight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers come ready to wear with a standard lace-up closure that allows for an adjustable fit. To ensure compatibility, verify the UK size 3.5 specification matches your child's current foot measurements. For ongoing care, clean the synthetic upper by wiping it down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the structural integrity of the cupsole. Use a soft brush to remove debris from the outsole to maintain traction, and let the shoes air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the synthetic materials from cracking.
