FAQs
How do the bungee laces work?
The bungee laces are designed for a quick and secure fit. You can pull them tighter or loosen them to adjust the snugness around your child's foot. There's often a toggle or lock to keep the laces in place.
What is the benefit of the SlipSpeed™ convertible heel?
The SlipSpeed™ heel can be folded down, allowing the trainer to be used as a slip-on shoe. This is convenient for quick changes, recovery after exercise, or for children who have difficulty with traditional heel counters.
Are these trainers suitable for all types of sports?
These trainers offer good cushioning and traction suitable for a range of activities like running, training, and general athletic play. For highly specialized sports, specific performance footwear might be recommended.
How do I clean the translucent mesh upper?
Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and water mixture with a soft brush, then rinse and air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What age group are these trainers intended for?
These trainers are designed for kids, specifically featuring elements like bungee lacing and the convertible heel for ease of use by younger individuals.
Can the bungee laces be replaced with standard laces?
While not explicitly designed for it, it might be possible to replace the bungee laces with standard laces if they are compatible with the eyelets. However, this would alter the intended quick-fit functionality.
What does UA HOVR™ cushioning do?
UA HOVR™ cushioning technology provides a feeling of zero gravity, reducing impact forces and returning energy to help propel you forward. It enhances comfort and performance during activity.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the tension of the bungee laces. Ensure the bootie construction is properly seated around the foot. Check the size chart for accurate fit.
Convertible heel is difficult to engage.
Ensure the shoe is clean and free of debris. Apply gentle, consistent pressure to fold the heel down. If resistance persists, check for obstructions.
Mesh upper appears dirty quickly.
Wipe down the mesh regularly with a damp cloth. For more significant dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then rinse gently and air dry.
Traction feels reduced.
Clean the rubber outsole to remove any dirt or mud buildup that may be affecting grip.
