FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for children with wide feet?
The Contend 9 is designed as a standard fit for young feet. While offering a comfortable fit, they may not be ideal for children with exceptionally wide feet. It is recommended to try them on if possible.
What is the benefit of the paste dyeing process for the insole?
The paste dyeing process reduces water usage by approximately 33%, making the production more environmentally friendly compared to traditional dyeing methods.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the child's longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The heel should fit snugly without slipping.
Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?
The trainers are not waterproof. While they can handle light splashes or dampness, they are not designed for prolonged exposure to wet conditions or heavy rain.
What age group are these trainers designed for?
These trainers are part of the 'Grade School' (GS) range, generally suitable for children who have outgrown toddler sizes and are active in school and play.
How durable is the toe reinforcement?
The toe reinforcement and rubber stitching are specifically added to increase durability, helping to protect the shoe from scuffs and wear during active play.
Troubleshooting
Shoes appear too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure the correct UK size has been selected. Lace the shoes properly, not too tight, to allow for natural foot movement. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe's shape is suitable for the child's foot width.
Tread is wearing down quickly.
Check if the shoes are being used for activities beyond their intended scope (e.g., high-impact sports). Ensure the child is not dragging their feet excessively during walking or running. The solid rubber outsole is designed for durability, but extreme use can accelerate wear.
Slight discoloration or material change after cleaning.
Always use mild soap and water for cleaning and air dry. Avoid machine washing, harsh chemicals, or direct heat, which can affect the material's integrity and appearance.
