Kickers Kick Scuff Lo - Black - Size: 8

Yes, Kickers Scuff Lo shoes are designed for all-day wear, providing comfort and durability for school and play. The secure rip tape fastening and supportive soles make them suitable for extended periods of activity.

It is recommended to measure your child's foot and refer to the Kickers size chart. Allow a small amount of growing room, but ensure the shoe is not too large as this can cause tripping or discomfort. This specific model is a UK size 8 for infants.

While the leather offers some natural water resistance and the chunky soles provide grip, these shoes are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain or puddles, consider additional waterproofing sprays for the leather and ensure they are dried properly afterwards.

The scuff-resistant panels are reinforced areas of the shoe, typically made from a more durable or treated material at the heel and toe. They are designed to withstand common scuffs and scrapes, helping the shoes maintain their smart appearance for longer without easily showing damage.

For the cleated rubber soles, use a stiff brush (like a dedicated shoe brush or an old toothbrush) and some warm soapy water to remove any embedded dirt or mud. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before the next wear.

Regularly wipe the shoes with a damp cloth after each wear. For a lasting shine, apply black shoe polish once a week and buff with a soft brush or cloth. Ensure the scuff-resistant panels are also cleaned and polished.

Check the rip tape for lint, dirt, or threads that might be caught in the hooks. Use a stiff brush or a pair of tweezers to carefully clean out any debris. This will restore the tape's ability to fasten securely.

While the cleated soles offer good grip, ensure they are clean and free of mud, small stones, or other debris that can reduce traction. If shoes are wet, allow them to dry fully before wear, as water can temporarily affect grip on very smooth surfaces.
