FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The 515 series offers a standard fit that is generally accommodating, though it is recommended to check the specific width sizing for your child if they require a wider fit.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as high heat and agitation can damage the adhesive and material structure. Stick to hand cleaning.

Are these waterproof?

No, these are casual trainers and are not treated with waterproof materials. They are intended for dry weather use.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the UK children's sizing guide. We suggest leaving a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe for growth.

Can these be used for sports like soccer or tennis?

While they are comfortable for physical education, they lack the specific lateral support and specialized outsoles required for competitive field or court sports.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming untied frequently

Double-knot the laces or replace them with high-friction cotton laces.

Surface stains on the grey fabric

Spot clean gently with a mixture of mild soap and lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

Sole losing grip over time

Clean the bottom of the rubber sole with a damp brush to remove caked-on debris that blocks the tread.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no special setup; they function as a standard lace-up or velcro-style sneaker (depending on the specific batch). To ensure longevity, keep them away from excessive moisture, as the material composition performs best in dry conditions. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the exterior. If the shoes become wet, air dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the rubber or stiffen the fabric materials.
