FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The Skechers Bounder Trainers feature stretch laces and an adjustable hook-and-loop strap, which offers some flexibility to accommodate various foot widths. However, for specific concerns, it's always best to try them on or consult Skechers' sizing guide.
Can my child wear these for school sports or running?
These trainers are designed for general athletic style and light activities, making them suitable for gym class, playground activities, and casual running. For competitive sports requiring specialized support, a dedicated sports shoe might be more appropriate.
How often should I wash these trainers?
Washing frequency depends on usage. For active kids, a monthly wash might be appropriate, or as needed when they become visibly dirty or start to develop odors. Always follow the machine washable care instructions.
Do I need to untie anything to put these on?
No, the Skechers Bounder Trainers feature stretch laces, so there's no need to tie or untie. Simply open the hook-and-loop strap, slide the foot in, and secure the strap.
Are there other color options available in the Bounder series?
Yes, while this specific product is in Black, the Skechers Bounder series often comes in a variety of colors and patterns. Check with your retailer for other available options.
How do I ensure I get the correct size for my child?
Children's feet grow quickly, so it's recommended to measure their feet regularly. Compare their foot length to the Skechers sizing chart for the most accurate fit. Look for about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight on the foot.
Adjust the hook-and-loop strap more snugly or loosely. For overall fit issues, verify the shoe size against your child's current foot measurements; children's feet grow quickly.
Shoes get dirty quickly from active play.
Take advantage of the machine washable feature. Follow the care instructions (gentle cycle, cold water, air dry) to keep them clean and fresh.
Child struggles to put on the shoes independently.
Ensure the strap is fully open before sliding the foot in. The stretch laces should allow for easy entry. Practice with your child to develop the motion.
Foot odor develops after prolonged wear.
Allow shoes to air out completely after each use. Consider using moisture-wicking socks. The machine washable feature can help eliminate odor-causing bacteria.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Easy On/Off: The stretch laces and strap make them simple for kids to put on and take off independently.
- Comfortable: Cushioned insole and lightweight design ensure all-day comfort for active feet.
- Durable Materials: Mesh and synthetic upper designed to withstand kids' play.
- Athletic Style: Modern look suitable for both casual wear and light athletic activities.
- Effortless Cleaning: Machine washable feature is a major plus for parents.
Cons
- Limited Lacing Adjustment: Stretch laces offer less precise fit customization compared to traditional tie laces.
- Specific Color for this Variant: This specific model is in black, limiting color choice for those desiring more vibrant options.
- Breathability: While mesh provides some, synthetic materials might be less breathable than full mesh in very hot conditions.
Setup
- Open the Strap: Release the hook-and-loop strap on the upper part of the shoe.
- Slide Foot In: The stretch laces will expand, allowing your child's foot to easily slide into the trainer.
- Secure the Strap: Fasten the hook-and-loop strap firmly but comfortably over the foot. Ensure it's snug enough to hold the foot in place without being too tight.
- Check Fit: Wiggle toes to ensure there's enough space at the front, and the heel feels secure.
Compatibility
These trainers are primarily designed for kids (age group: younger, children's UK size 10) for everyday casual wear and light athletic activities. They are suitable for various foot widths due to the adaptable closure, though checking specific size guides for Skechers is always recommended for the best fit.
Care
The Skechers Bounder Trainers are machine washable for easy cleaning:
- Remove Loose Dirt: Brush off any excess dirt or mud from the shoes.
- Place in Laundry Bag: For best results and to protect the shoes (and your washing machine), place them in a laundry bag or pillowcase.
- Wash Gently: Use a mild detergent and wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Do not use hot water or bleach.
- Air Dry: DO NOT tumble dry. Allow the trainers to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
