FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
They are ideal for general everyday activity and light play, though specialized sports might require specific court or field shoes.
How do I determine the right size?
Use a standard foot measuring device to get the correct UK size, and ensure there is about a thumb's width of space at the front for growth.
Can these be washed in a machine?
Machine washing is generally discouraged as it can damage the materials. Use a damp cloth to spot clean instead.
Are these trainers waterproof?
They are not designed to be waterproof and may allow water to soak through in heavy rain or deep puddles.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The 740 series has a standard fit; if your child has significantly wide feet, you may need to look for specific 'Wide' width variants if available.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight despite correct size
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before entry and check if the foot requires a wider fitting option.
Insole slipping during activity
Remove the insole and re-seat it firmly, or use a small amount of double-sided adhesive tape if the issue persists.
Outsole losing grip
Check the treads for lodged debris or pebbles that may be reducing surface contact; clean with a soft brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for these trainers, verify the UK size matches your child's current foot measurement before first use. These shoes are compatible with standard orthotic inserts if custom support is required. For care, keep the uppers clean by wiping them with a damp, soft cloth. Avoid submerging the trainers in water or placing them in a tumble dryer, as heat can degrade the adhesives and structural foam. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
