FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the adidas Run 70s 2.0 Shoes feature plush Cloudfoam cushioning and a flexible EVA outsole, making them comfortable and supportive for all-day wear for active kids.

Can these shoes be used for competitive sports?

While great for general playground activities, light running, and everyday casual wear, these shoes are not specifically designed for competitive sports that require specialized support or traction. For those activities, dedicated athletic footwear is recommended.

What is the benefit of the hook-and-loop strap?

The hook-and-loop strap provides a quick, easy, and adjustable closure. This allows children to independently put on and take off their shoes, while also ensuring a secure and comfortable fit tailored to their foot.

What does 'at least 20% recycled materials' mean for the product?

This signifies that a minimum of 20% of the materials used in the shoes' construction come from recycled sources. This initiative helps adidas reduce waste, decrease reliance on finite resources, and lessen the overall ecological footprint of their products.

Will the outsole leave marks on indoor floors?

No, the shoes are equipped with a non-marking rubber outsole. This design feature ensures optimal grip on various surfaces without leaving scuff marks or streaks on indoor floors.

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

To ensure the best fit, measure your child's foot from the heel to the tip of the longest toe. Then, consult the adidas kids' sizing chart. It's recommended to have about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe for comfort and growth.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel uncomfortable or don't fit right.

First, re-check the sizing. Ensure there's a thumb's width of space at the toe. Adjust the hook-and-loop strap to be secure but not overly tight. If discomfort persists, consider if the size is correct for your child's current foot measurements.

Hook-and-loop straps are not holding securely.

Inspect both sides of the hook-and-loop fasteners for any trapped lint, dirt, or debris. Use a small brush (like a toothbrush) or a toothpick to carefully clean out any obstructions. If the straps are severely worn after extensive use, their effectiveness may diminish.

Shoes appear dirty or stained after outdoor play.

For general dirt, use a soft brush. For stains, gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap, then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or harsh scrubbing, especially on the mixed-material upper.

A strong odor develops inside the shoes.

Ensure shoes are thoroughly air-dried after each use. Remove any insoles if possible and air them out separately. You can sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out in the morning. Regularly wearing socks can also help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting your child ready with their adidas Run 70s 2.0 shoes is straightforward:

  1. Open the Strap: Fully open the hook-and-loop strap.
  2. Insert Foot: Gently slide your child's foot into the shoe.
  3. Secure Fit: Fasten the hook-and-loop strap firmly but comfortably across the top of the foot. Ensure it's not too tight or too loose.
  4. Check Sizing: Verify there is roughly a thumb's width of space between your child's longest toe and the end of the shoe. This allows for comfort and growth.

Compatibility

These shoes are designed for kids (unisex) and are perfectly suited for:

  • Everyday casual wear
  • Playground activities
  • Light running and jogging
  • School activities

They are versatile for a wide range of indoor and outdoor surfaces due to their non-marking outsole.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your adidas Run 70s 2.0 shoes:

  1. Initial Cleaning: Brush off any loose dirt or debris using a soft-bristled brush (like an old toothbrush).
  2. Spot Cleaning: For stains on the mixed-material upper, dampen a cloth with a small amount of mild soap (e.g., diluted dish soap) and gently wipe the affected area. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  3. Rinsing: Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe away any soap residue.
  4. Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers). Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  5. Strap Maintenance: Periodically check the hook-and-loop straps for lint or dirt accumulation, which can affect their grip. Use a small brush or toothpick to gently clean them.
  6. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place to prevent material degradation.
