FAQs

Are the lights in the sole replaceable?

No, the light-up components are integrated into the sole and are not designed to be replaced. Their lifespan depends on usage and care.

How do I clean these trainers?

Gently wipe the textile upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not machine wash or submerge in water, as this can damage the light-up feature. Air dry completely away from direct heat.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the textile upper material is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions and casual wear. Avoid heavy rain or wet environments.

What is the heel height?

These trainers feature a low heel, typically between 2.5-4.9 cm, designed for comfort and natural movement, suitable for active children.

Can these be used for sports like football or running clubs?

These are designed as 'Casual' style trainers. While suitable for active play and everyday running, for specialized sports, dedicated sports footwear might offer better support and performance features specific to those activities.

What does 'Relaxed' shoe width mean?

A 'Relaxed' shoe width means the trainers offer a more generous fit around the foot compared to a standard width, providing extra comfort and room for movement, which is beneficial for growing feet.

Troubleshooting

The lights aren't working.

Check if the shoes have been exposed to excessive water or strong impacts. The lights are motion-activated; ensure your child is walking or running. If still not working, the internal battery may have depleted, as these are typically non-replaceable in children's light-up shoes.

The shoes feel too loose or too tight.

Adjust the lace-up closure. Ensure laces are tied securely but not overly constricted. For tightness, try relacing with more slack. For looseness, tighten the laces progressively.

Shoes get dirty quickly.

Regularly wipe down the textile upper with a damp cloth after wear. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush and mild soap, then wipe clean. Avoid letting mud or dirt dry on the fabric.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by air trapped in the sole or friction between components. Check if any small stones or debris are lodged in the sole treads. If the sound persists, it's usually a minor manufacturing variation and doesn't affect performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

  1. Unlace: Upon receiving your new trainers, unlace them fully to allow for easy foot insertion.
  2. Insert Foot: Help your child insert their foot, ensuring their heel is snug against the back of the shoe.
  3. Adjust Laces: Adjust the laces to achieve a snug, secure fit that isn't too tight. Ensure there's a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
  4. Tie Securely: Tie the laces securely, teaching your child proper lacing techniques if they are old enough.

Compatibility

These trainers are designed for boys in UK Size 6. They are suitable for general casual wear and light active play.

Care Instructions

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the textile upper and rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the trainers in water or machine washing them, as this can damage the light-up components and material. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: Air dry the trainers away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage materials and electronic components.
  • Light-Up Feature Care: Protect the light-up sole from excessive impacts or prolonged exposure to moisture to extend its life. Avoid bending the sole aggressively.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
