Clarks Steggy Stride - Black - Size 2

Yes, with their durable leather upper, protective toe bumpers, and comfortable padding, the Steggy Stride shoes are an excellent choice for daily school wear and active play.

These are a Wide Fit (G-fit) shoe. Measure your child's foot length and width, and refer to the Clarks size guide. Ensure there's about a thumb's width space at the toe and the wide fit accommodates the width of their foot comfortably.

The Microban lining is an antimicrobial treatment that helps inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, keeping the shoes fresher for longer and contributing to overall foot hygiene.

Yes, the combination of elastic laces and a riptape fastening is designed for easy manipulation, allowing children to put on and adjust their own shoes independently.

The 3D spine details on the heel and the motifs on the hard-wearing rubber outsole are integrated into the design for durability. While normal wear and tear will occur, they are built to withstand active use.

If the shoes get wet, remove any excess moisture, stuff them with newspaper to help absorb water and maintain shape, and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat.

Absolutely. The hard-wearing rubber outsole is designed with flex-grooves that allow for natural foot movement and optimal flexibility, which is crucial for active children during running, jumping, and climbing.

Ensure the riptape fastening and elastic laces are adjusted correctly. As this is a wide fit model, if the shoes still feel too loose, your child might require a standard fit. If too tight, confirm it's the correct size and fit for their foot width.

While the Microban lining helps, prolonged wear or trapped moisture can still lead to odor. Ensure shoes are aired out after each use. You can also sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out.

Check the rubber outsole for dirt, mud, or small stones lodged in the flex-grooves. Clean the sole thoroughly with a brush and water to restore optimal traction.

The rubber toe bumper is designed to protect, but scuffs can still occur on the leather. Clean the affected area with a damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a leather cleaner or a shoe polish matching the black color to restore the finish.

Clean any lint or debris from both sides of the riptape fastening. Over time, riptape can lose its grip; ensure it's fully pressed down across its entire surface for the most secure hold.
