Product Information

Full details

The adidas VL Move Trainers are designed for active infants and toddlers who need a reliable, comfortable shoe for daily exploration. These trainers combine the iconic aesthetic of the brand with practical features like lightweight cushioning and an easy-fasten closure system, making them ideal for nursery and playgroup activities. While they offer excellent support for growing feet, the slip-on style with hook-and-loop straps is best suited for casual play rather than high-intensity athletic sports.

FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is recommended to clean these trainers by hand with a damp cloth or soft brush to preserve the integrity of the cushioning and materials.

What does the Cloudfoam unitsole do?

Cloudfoam is a proprietary adidas cushioning material that provides a soft, step-in comfort and absorbs shock during movement.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The VL Move features a regular fit; if your child has significantly wider feet, you may find the standard fit snug.

Do I need to tie the laces?

No, these shoes feature elastic laces that do not require tying, paired with a hook-and-loop strap for a secure fit.

Are they water-resistant?

The mesh upper is breathable and therefore not water-resistant. They are best suited for dry or light indoor/outdoor conditions.

Troubleshooting

Hook-and-loop strap is losing its grip

Check the Velcro surface for lint or debris. Use a pair of tweezers or a brush to clear out fibers to restore the stickiness.

Shoes feel tight after a few months

Check if the child has outgrown the size; as infants grow rapidly, it is recommended to check for fit every 2-3 months.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers come ready to wear right out of the box with no break-in period required. To maintain the life of the shoes:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a damp cloth. For the mesh areas, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud.
  2. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the EVA sole or damage the adhesive.
  3. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place when not in use.
  4. Fit Check: Ensure the child's toes have roughly a thumb's width of space at the front to accommodate growth.
