FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is recommended to clean them by hand with a damp cloth to maintain the integrity of the elastic straps and adhesives.
Do these trainers have actual laces?
No, the Flex Runner 4 utilizes a laceless slip-on system with elastic straps to provide a secure fit.
Can these be used for sports?
They are perfect for general play, running, and physical education, though they are not specialized performance shoes for competitive sports.
How do I ensure the right size?
Measure the child's foot while they are standing and refer to the standard UK sizing guide, keeping in mind that the slip-on design provides a snug fit.
What surfaces are these best for?
The outsoles feature flex grooves designed to provide traction on most common surfaces like playgrounds, gym floors, and sidewalks.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty sliding the foot in
Ensure the heel tab is pulled fully back and the upper elastic straps are not twisted.
Shoe feels loose during activity
Check that the child is wearing the correct size and verify that the upper straps are positioned flat across the arch of the foot.
Outer material appears dull
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dried dirt from the textile upper before wiping with a damp cloth.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Lightweight construction for all-day comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, have the child stand on a flat surface while measuring their foot size to account for natural spread. Since this is a slip-on model, ensure the elastic straps sit flush against the top of the foot without causing excessive pressure. For care, keep the shoes clean by wiping the upper materials with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the adhesive and the elasticity of the straps. If the shoes become soaked, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
