FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

Skechers Bounder - Trekzic trainers are designed for casual wear and light athletic activities like playground games and running around. For specialized or intensive sports, you might consider shoes designed specifically for those activities.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

To clean the mesh and synthetic upper, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid scrubbing harshly or using strong chemicals. Air dry away from direct heat.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the mesh and synthetic upper materials are not waterproof. While they offer good breathability, they will not prevent water from entering in wet conditions.

Do I need to tie the laces?

No, these trainers feature stretch laces that are designed to provide a flexible fit without needing to be tied. The adjustable instep strap allows for easy tightening or loosening.

What is the relaxed fit?

The 'Relaxed Shoe Width' means the shoe offers a roomier fit in the toe area and forefoot compared to standard athletic shoes. This provides extra comfort and space for natural foot movement.

Can these shoes be machine washed?

No, machine washing is not recommended for Skechers Bounder - Trekzic trainers as it can damage the materials and construction. Always refer to the 'Care' section for cleaning instructions.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose or too tight

Adjust the instep strap. For a snugger fit, tighten the strap; for a looser fit, relax the strap. Remember the stretch laces provide some flexibility.

Shoes get dirty quickly

Wipe the mesh and synthetic upper regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher dirt on the sole, use a brush. Refer to the 'Care' section for detailed cleaning instructions.

Foot odor develops

Ensure your child wears socks with the trainers. Allow shoes to air out thoroughly between uses. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not being worn.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by air trapped in the sole or friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning the inside of the shoe, and reinserting it. If it persists, it might be a manufacturing issue.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • All-Day Comfort: Cushioned insole and relaxed fit support active feet through school and play.
  • Easy On/Off: Stretch laces and an adjustable strap simplify wearing, promoting independence for kids.
  • Lightweight Construction: Reduces fatigue, allowing kids to move freely and comfortably for extended periods.
  • Versatile Style: Athletic design is suitable for school, playground, and casual outings.
  • Good Traction: Rubber sole provides reliable grip on various surfaces.

Cons

  • Not Waterproof: The mesh upper may allow water to penetrate in wet conditions.
  • Casual Focus: Best suited for general play and daily wear, not specialized high-impact sports.
  • Limited Arch Support: While cushioned, it may not offer specialized arch support for specific foot conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Open the Strap: Fully unfasten the adjustable instep strap.
  2. Insert Foot: Guide your child's foot into the shoe, ensuring the heel is properly seated.
  3. Adjust Strap: Secure the instep strap, making it firm but not too tight. The stretch laces will adapt to the foot's shape.
  4. Check Fit: Ensure there's a small amount of wiggle room for the toes and the shoe feels comfortable.

Compatibility

These trainers are designed for kids, specifically boys (though suitable for any child desiring this style). They are compatible with a wide range of casual and athletic wear. The relaxed fit is suitable for most foot types, providing comfort for general daily use.

Care

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Skechers Bounder - Trekzic trainers, follow these care instructions:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  • Sole Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to clean the rubber sole, removing any dirt or debris.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
  • Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing is not recommended as it can compromise the shoe's structure and materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
