Product Information
Full details
The Clarks Feather Skip trainers are designed for active school-aged children who need a reliable, comfortable shoe that transitions easily from the classroom to the playground. These trainers offer the perfect balance of sporty performance and polished style, featuring a durable leather construction and convenient riptape fastenings. While they provide excellent support for natural foot development, the glossy finish and glitter accents may show signs of wear more quickly during high-intensity contact sports compared to non-decorative athletic shoes.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, it is recommended to wipe them clean with a damp cloth to preserve the leather and decorative accents.
Do they provide arch support?
Yes, they are built on a child-specific last designed to support the natural shape and movement of a developing foot.
Can the insoles be removed?
The interior features a lining for freshness; if you need orthotic inserts, check with a professional fitter to ensure the shoe volume remains appropriate.
What is the primary material?
The upper is constructed from high-quality leather, which offers a balance of durability and comfort.
Are they suitable for wider feet?
The riptape straps allow for a degree of adjustability in the instep, but it is always best to verify the width fitting based on your child's specific requirements.
Troubleshooting
Riptape straps losing stickiness
Remove trapped lint or debris from the hooks and loops using a small brush or a pair of tweezers.
Scuff marks on the glossy leather
Apply a small amount of clear shoe polish or a leather conditioner specifically formulated for polished finishes.
Odour buildup despite the lining
Ensure the shoes are completely dry before the next wear and use a mild, child-safe shoe deodorizer if necessary.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure the child is wearing the specific socks intended for school use when measuring. Because the Feather Skip series utilizes riptape, the straps should be secured firmly across the bridge of the foot to prevent slipping without restricting circulation. To care for these trainers, wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents. If the interior lining begins to hold moisture, stuff the shoes with dry paper to absorb excess dampness and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking.
