FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
Yes, the inclusion of ABZORB cushioning in the heel and forefoot makes them well-suited for general play and light athletic activities.
Do I need to tie these laces?
No, this model features a bungee lace system designed for a secure, slip-on fit without the need for tying.
How do I choose the right size for my child?
We recommend measuring your child's foot and referring to standard UK sizing charts, ensuring there is a small amount of room for growth.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
Machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the specialized cushioning materials and adhesives.
Is the material waterproof?
The mesh and synthetic materials are not waterproof and may allow water to penetrate during heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Bungee lace feels too loose
Check if the toggle lock is fully engaged and ensure the lace is evenly distributed across the eyelets.
Mesh material is stained
Gently dab the area with a mixture of mild soap and water using a microfiber cloth, then allow to air dry away from direct heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. The bungee lace system ensures a snug fit without requiring manual tying; simply ensure the toggle is positioned comfortably against the tongue. For maintenance, keep the shoes away from heavy mud to preserve the mesh underlays. If cleaning is necessary, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface debris and wipe the synthetic overlays with a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the trainers in water or using harsh chemicals, as this may compromise the foam cushioning and adhesive bonds.
