FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These are specialized hockey trainers optimized for turf performance; they are not intended for long-distance road running.
Can these be washed in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the materials and the adhesive. Please clean them manually with a damp cloth.
What is the primary material in the midsole?
The Kookaburra Orbit features an EVA midsole, which is chosen for its lightweight shock-absorbing properties.
Are these trainers waterproof?
While they are durable for outdoor use, they are not fully waterproof and are designed to be breathable.
How do I ensure the right fit?
The UK size 2 should be measured against your child's foot with athletic socks on to account for the necessary room for movement.
Troubleshooting
Shoes are losing traction on the turf.
Check the outsole for embedded debris or worn tread patterns and clean the soles with a soft brush.
Discomfort or pinching during play.
Ensure the laces are tied snugly but not too tight, and verify that the socks being worn are appropriate for hockey.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Kookaburra Orbit trainers, ensure you are wearing the correct size for a snug, secure fit. These shoes are designed for field hockey use. After each session, remove any loose dirt or artificial turf rubber pellets from the outsole. If the trainers become wet, stuff them with newspaper and allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area—avoid placing them near radiators or direct heat, as this can degrade the materials and damage the midsole cushioning.
