FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is recommended to spot clean with a damp cloth. Machine washing can damage the adhesive and cushioning materials.

Does the 408v1 run true to size?

Yes, they generally align with standard UK sizing for children.

Can I replace the insole with custom orthotics?

Yes, if the factory insole is removable, you can swap it for a custom orthotic insert.

Are these suitable for long-distance running?

These are primarily lifestyle trainers. While they have a runner profile, they are not intended for professional athletic performance or long-distance racing.

How do I determine the right size for my child?

Measure the length of the foot from heel to longest toe and compare it to the brand's size chart, ensuring there is a small amount of wiggle room.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone during activity

Double-knot the laces or swap them for a shorter, higher-friction lace style.

Foot slipping inside the shoe

Adjust the lacing pattern to use the top-most eyelet for a more secure 'heel lock' fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design suitable for school and leisure
  • Adjustable lace-up system for a custom fit
  • Supportive cushioning for all-day comfort
  • Modern, athletic look

Cons

  • Laces may require frequent adjustment for younger children
  • Not designed for high-intensity competitive sports
  • Limited to specific size and color availability

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best experience, start by fully loosening the laces before placing the foot inside to avoid unnecessary pressure on the heel counter. Adjust the laces to a snug but comfortable tension that prevents slipping without restricting blood flow. Regarding care, keep the trainers away from industrial dryers or high-heat sources, as this can degrade the cushioning foam. If they become dirty, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap; allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
