Product Information
Full details
The adidas Barreda Decode EL Trainers are designed for active kids who need comfortable and easy-to-wear footwear for school or play. Their key benefit is the simple on-and-off design facilitated by elastic laces and a top strap. A minor consideration is that the nylon upper, while lightweight, may require careful cleaning to maintain its appearance.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The elastic laces offer some flexibility, but the fit is generally standard. If your child has very wide feet, it's recommended to try them on first.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Hand-cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.
What age group are these trainers best for?
These trainers are designed for kids and are particularly useful for younger children who are learning to dress themselves, due to the easy-on closure system.
How do I know if I've got the right size?
Refer to the adidas sizing chart and measure your child's foot. It's best to have a little room for growth, but ensure the shoe is not too loose to avoid tripping.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is primarily made of smooth nylon with suede overlays for added style and durability.
Can the elastic laces be replaced?
While not designed for easy replacement by the consumer, specialized shoe repair shops may be able to replace them if they become significantly worn.
Troubleshooting
Elastic laces lose elasticity
While normal wear can affect elasticity, ensure the top strap is still providing adequate security. Replacement elastic laces can be purchased from specialty shoe stores if needed.
Stains on the nylon upper
Promptly wipe away fresh stains with a damp cloth. For dried-on stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then rinse with a damp cloth. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.
Top strap loses adhesion
Ensure the strap area is clean and free from debris. If the hook-and-loop fastener is worn, it may require replacement. Contact customer support if the issue persists.

Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the nylon upper with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the outsole.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
