FAQs
How do I measure my child's foot for the best fit?
Place your child's foot on a piece of paper, ensuring their heel is against a wall. Mark the longest toe. Measure the distance from the wall to the mark in centimeters and compare this to the sizing chart. Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended. Hand wash with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry. Machine washing can damage the shoe's materials and construction.
Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?
While durable and comfortable, their aggressive tread pattern is optimized for outdoor trails. They can be worn for everyday use, but might show wear more quickly on hard surfaces like pavement compared to less aggressive trainers.
What is the main benefit of the Contagrip technology?
Contagrip is Salomon's proprietary outsole technology designed to provide exceptional grip and durability on a wide range of surfaces, ensuring stability and preventing slips.
How do I replace the Quicklace system if it gets damaged?
The Quicklace system components are generally replaceable. You can often find replacement laces and lace locks through Salomon's official website or specialized outdoor gear retailers.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The product description does not explicitly state these are waterproof. They are designed for trail use and offer some water resistance, but may not be suitable for prolonged submersion or very wet conditions unless a waterproof version is specified.
What age group are these trainers intended for?
These trainers are specifically designed for kids and are suitable for young children who are active and enjoy outdoor activities.
Troubleshooting
Child finds laces difficult to tighten
Ensure the lace lock is functioning correctly. Demonstrate to the child how to pull the laces firmly and tuck them into the lace pocket. You may need to pre-tighten them initially.
Shoes feel too tight or too loose
Re-check the sizing against your child's foot measurement. Adjust the Quicklace™ system for a snug, but not constricting, fit. The Sensifit system should provide a secure hug around the foot.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the Contagrip® outsole is clean and free from debris. Mud or heavy soil can reduce grip. Gently brush off any accumulated dirt.
Water getting into the shoe during wet conditions
While designed for outdoor use, these are not fully waterproof unless specified as such. For very wet conditions, consider waterproof socks or alternative footwear.
