Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for grass fields?
While the lug pattern provides good traction, they are optimized for synthetic hockey pitches. They may be used on firm grass but perform best on artificial turf.
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
The trainers follow standard UK children's sizing. It is recommended to allow for a small amount of space in the toe box for comfort during sport.
Are these machine washable?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the structural integrity and the adhesive used in the construction.
What is the purpose of the TPU toe cap?
The TPU toe cap is a reinforced protective layer that shields the toes from impacts with the hockey ball or stick.
Can these be used for other sports?
While versatile enough for general activity, the outsole is engineered specifically for the requirements of field hockey and may not provide the same benefits for sports like soccer or basketball.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel loose during play
Ensure the hook-and-loop straps are pressed down firmly and clear of any debris like grass or turf pellets that could prevent a secure seal.
Difficulty putting the shoes on
Fully loosen the hook-and-loop straps and use the heel collar to pull the shoe on, ensuring the tongue is centered before tightening.
Sole grip is slippery
Clean the rubber lugs thoroughly with water and a brush to remove caked-on dirt or debris that fills the grooves and reduces traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, ensure the hook-and-loop straps are pulled firmly across the bridge of the foot without overtightening. These trainers are intended for use on field hockey pitches and similar artificial surfaces. To maintain the life of the synthetic upper and the integrity of the outsole, remove excess mud or turf rubber granules after every session using a soft-bristled brush. Store the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the materials from warping or becoming brittle. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the specialized bonding agents used in the construction.
