FAQs

What age group are the Karrimor Duma 6 trainers intended for?

These trainers are designed for kids, specifically children who are beginning their running journey or engaging in general sports activities.

How do I ensure a secure fit for my child?

The hook and loop fastening system allows for easy adjustment to create a secure and personalized fit for your child's foot.

Are these shoes suitable for hard court surfaces?

The rubber pods on the outsole provide good traction, making them suitable for general sports and running. For very specific hard court sports, specialized footwear might be more appropriate.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to maintain the integrity of the materials.

What is the main cushioning technology used?

The Karrimor Duma 6 features an EVA insole and a phylon midsole for lightweight cushioning and shock absorption.

What does 'entry level' mean for these running shoes?

'Entry level' indicates these shoes are designed for beginners and general use, offering foundational comfort and support without the advanced technical features found in high-performance or specialized running shoes.

How durable is the knitted upper?

The seamless knitted upper is designed to be strong and durable, offering a flexible and comfortable fit while withstanding regular wear and tear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the hook and loop fasteners to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure the foot is positioned correctly within the shoe before fastening.

Traction seems insufficient

Check the outsole for any debris or mud that may be obstructing the rubber pods. Clean the outsole with a brush or damp cloth.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the correct size is being worn. The seamless upper is designed to reduce irritation, but check for any small objects inside the shoe or if socks are causing friction.

Material feels stiff after washing

Avoid using harsh detergents and always air dry. If stiffness occurs, a gentle flexing of the shoe may help restore some suppleness.
