FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for school uniforms?
Yes, the classic black leather finish of the Steggy 2 Pace Kid shoes makes them suitable for most school uniform policies. The playful dinosaur details are typically considered acceptable, adding personality without being overly distracting.
How do I ensure the correct size for my child?
For the best fit, we recommend having your child's feet measured professionally at a Clarks store. Alternatively, you can use a Clarks at-home foot measuring gauge. Always ensure there is approximately a thumb's width of space between your child's longest toe and the end of the shoe for comfort and growth.
Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
While the leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, these shoes are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles should be avoided. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature.
How durable are the dinosaur details and outsole design?
The 3D dino-spine shapes on the heel and the PLAYPRINTS outsole design are integrated into the shoe's durable construction. They are designed to withstand the rigours of active play and regular wear, just like the rest of the shoe.
Does the EVA midsole provide good arch support for active kids?
The lightweight EVA midsole is primarily designed to provide excellent cushioning and absorb impact, which contributes significantly to overall foot comfort and protection for active children. While it offers general support, specific arch support levels can vary for individual foot types.
How often should I clean these shoes?
The frequency of cleaning depends on usage. For daily wear, a quick wipe with a damp cloth every few days can maintain their appearance. A more thorough cleaning with leather cleaner and conditioner should be done periodically, especially if they become heavily soiled.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose after initial fitting.
Adjust both riptape straps. Ensure the lower strap provides secure forefoot containment without pinching, and the upper strap secures the ankle. Confirm there is a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Shoes develop an odor despite the Microban lining.
While the Microban lining helps, prolonged heavy use can still lead to odor. Air out the shoes thoroughly after each use. If insoles are removable, take them out to dry separately. You can also use shoe deodorizers or baking soda packets overnight.
Leather appears dull, scuffed, or scratched.
Wipe the leather with a clean, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper scuffs or to restore shine, use a suitable black leather polish or conditioner. Apply according to product instructions, then buff gently with a soft cloth.
Riptape straps are not holding securely.
Clean any lint, dirt, or debris from both sides of the riptape (hooks and loops) with a stiff brush or an old toothbrush. Over time, debris can reduce adhesion. If the riptape is worn out, it may need professional repair or replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unfasten Riptape: Fully open both riptape straps on the shoe.
- Position Foot: Guide your child's foot into the shoe, ensuring their heel is comfortably seated at the back.
- Secure Lower Strap: Fasten the lower riptape strap first, securing the forefoot without making it too tight. Ensure toes have wiggle room.
- Secure Upper Strap: Fasten the upper riptape strap to secure the ankle and top of the foot, achieving a snug yet comfortable custom fit.
- Check Fit: Confirm there's approximately a thumb's width of space between your child's longest toe and the end of the shoe for comfort and growth.
Compatibility
- Age Group: Primarily designed for kids, available in various children's and infant sizes.
- Environments: Ideal for daily wear in both classroom settings and active outdoor playground environments.
- Gender: Features a unisex design, suitable for all children.
- Material: Constructed from durable black leather, suitable for most school uniform requirements.
Care
- Cleaning Leather: Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt and scuffs. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner appropriate for black leather shoes. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources such as radiators or direct sunlight, which can cause the leather to crack or stiffen.
- Odour Management: The built-in Microban lining actively helps manage odors. For additional freshness, occasionally remove insoles (if removable) and air out shoes after heavy use.
- Maintenance: Regularly inspect the riptape fastenings for wear and tear to ensure they continue to provide a secure fit. Consider applying a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple.
