FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for general athletic activities and everyday wear, providing comfort and support for active play. For specialized or high-impact sports, footwear designed for those specific demands might offer more targeted support.
What age group are these trainers for?
The Skechers Bounder Techrox are designed for kids. This specific variant is a UK size 5, which typically corresponds to younger children.
How often should I wash them?
Washing frequency depends on usage and how dirty they get. For active kids, washing them every few weeks or as needed will help keep them clean and fresh.
Can I tumble dry these trainers?
No, it is not recommended to tumble dry them. Always air dry them away from direct heat to maintain their shape, material integrity, and prevent damage.
Is the sizing accurate?
Skechers typically uses standard UK sizing for children's footwear. If you're unsure about the size, it's always best to measure your child's foot and compare it to a Skechers size chart.
Are they suitable for wider feet?
The adjustable hook-and-loop instep strap provides some flexibility, allowing for a more customized and comfortable fit for various foot widths. The stretch laces also adapt to the foot shape.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the hook-and-loop instep strap to achieve a more comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the socks worn are of an appropriate thickness for the shoe.
Foot odor develops quickly.
Utilize the machine washable feature regularly to keep them fresh. Consider using odor-absorbing insoles designed for children's shoes. Ensure feet are dry before putting on trainers.
Difficulty putting trainers on.
Ensure the instep strap is fully loosened and the stretch laces are expanded. If the child's foot is wide, use a shoehorn or gently pull the tongue forward to aid entry.
Stains are hard to remove after washing.
For stubborn stains, pre-treat the affected area with a mild stain remover suitable for synthetic fabrics before placing the trainers in the washing machine. Gently scrub with a soft brush if needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

- Playground adventures
- Light athletic activities (running, jumping)

Care Instructions
One of the standout features of the Skechers Bounder Techrox is its machine washable design, making cleaning incredibly convenient.
- Prepare: Remove any loose dirt or debris with a soft brush or cloth.
- Protect: Place the trainers in a laundry bag or a pillowcase to protect them during the wash cycle.
- Wash: Wash on a gentle cycle using cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Dry: Air dry the trainers completely. Place them away from direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers) to prevent material damage or shrinking. Do not tumble dry.
Following these steps will help maintain the trainers' appearance and extend their lifespan.
