FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these shoes as the water and agitation can damage the suede overlays.
Can I use these for sports?
They are ideal for casual athletic activities and playground games, but for high-intensity competitive sports, specialized footwear is recommended.
How do I ensure the correct size for my child?
It is best to measure the child's foot in the afternoon when feet are naturally at their largest and compare the measurement against the adidas size chart.
Are the materials suitable for rainy weather?
While the construction is durable, the suede material is sensitive to excessive water. It is best to avoid heavy rain or puddles to prolong the life of the shoes.
Do these shoes provide good arch support?
Yes, the standard fit is designed to provide balanced support for growing feet, making them suitable for all-day wear.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone during activity
Use a double-knot technique or replace them with slightly textured laces for better grip.
Suede looks dull after light wear
Use a suede eraser or a soft-bristled suede brush to restore the texture and remove debris.
General discomfort or tightness
Re-lace the shoes using a 'window lacing' technique to relieve pressure on the top of the foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance from these trainers, ensure the laces are adjusted to the child's comfort before their first outing, as the standard fit is designed to be supportive rather than overly loose. For maintenance, avoid machine washing these shoes due to the suede components. Instead, use a dry brush specifically designed for suede to gently remove surface dust and dirt. For the nylon portions, a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water is usually sufficient. Always allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated space away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping.
