FAQs

How do the lights on the shoes work?

The lights in the midsole are activated by the impact of the child's steps. Each step creates pressure that triggers the lights.

Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Machine washing can damage the light-up mechanism, sequins, and glitter elements. Hand-wash carefully following the care instructions.

How long do the lights typically last?

The lifespan of the lights depends on usage. They are powered by internal, non-replaceable batteries and are designed to function for a significant period of active use.

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and light athletic activities like running and playing. They are not intended for professional or high-impact sports.

What is the fastening system?

The shoes feature a combination of Velcro straps and elastic laces, offering a secure and adjustable fit that is easy for children to manage themselves.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed from a combination of sequin-embellished fabric and glitter synthetic materials.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

Refer to the UK child sizing guide and measure your child's foot from heel to toe. Compare this measurement to the Skechers sizing chart to find the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Lights are not working

Ensure the child is walking or running to activate the impact sensors. If they still do not light up after significant activity, the battery may be depleted. The lights are not designed to be recharged or replaced.

Velcro strap not holding securely

Check the Velcro for debris (lint, dirt) that may be preventing a strong closure. Clean the Velcro hook and loop surfaces gently with a soft brush or toothbrush. Ensure the strap is pulled taut when fastening.

Shoes appear dirty

Follow the care instructions above. Use a damp cloth for surface cleaning and a mild soap solution for tougher marks on the sole. Always air dry.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the correct size has been purchased. If the shoes feel slightly stiff, encourage the child to wear them for short periods initially to break them in. Check for any internal stitching that might be causing irritation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These shoes require no setup. They are ready to wear straight out of the box.

Compatibility: Designed for children's feet, suitable for casual wear and light athletic activities. Compatible with everyday children's clothing.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the sequin and glitter synthetic upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the embellishments and material.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth to clean the rubber outsole and midsole. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by a thorough rinse with a clean, damp cloth.
  3. Light-Up Feature: The lights are activated by impact. They are not user-serviceable and will cease functioning when the battery is depleted. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the light-up mechanism.
  4. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry completely at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a clothes dryer.
