FAQs

How do I know if the shoes fit my child correctly?

The shoes feature an adiFIT® measuring tool printed on the sockliner. Have your child stand with their heel against the back of the shoe and check if their longest toe aligns with the fit line. You can also check for about a finger's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The product description does not specify waterproof materials. They are designed with a textile upper and synthetic overlays for general outdoor use, offering some resistance to light moisture but are not fully waterproof.

What is the drop of the midsole?

The midsole drop is 8 mm, with a stack height of 20 mm at the heel and 12 mm at the forefoot.

Can these shoes be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Hand wash them using a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry them naturally.

What does 'contains at least 20% recycled content' mean?

This means that a minimum of 20% of the shoe's material, by weight, is made from recycled sources, contributing to environmental sustainability.

Are these shoes suitable for very young children?

These shoes are designed for kids and are suitable for active play and light hiking. The adiFIT® tool helps ensure a proper fit, which is crucial for children's developing feet.

How heavy are these shoes?

The shoes weigh approximately 193.25 grams per shoe, making them relatively lightweight for children.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Utilize the adiFIT® measuring tool on the sockliner to confirm the correct size. Adjust the laces for a more secure or relaxed fit. If the size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.

Traction seems poor on wet surfaces.

The Traxion outsole offers multi-directional grip but may perform differently on extremely wet, slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is free of debris. For very wet conditions, exercise caution.

Laces come undone frequently.

Ensure the laces are tied using a secure knot. Double-knotting may provide extra security for very active children.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These shoes require no assembly. Simply ensure the laces are loosened for comfortable insertion and then tie them securely using a standard shoelace knot. Use the adiFIT® measuring tool printed on the sockliner to check the fit before extended wear. Place your child's foot on the sockliner, ensuring their heel is at the back and their longest toe reaches the indicated line for a correct fit.

Compatibility:

Designed for general outdoor activities, including hiking, trail walking, and everyday active play. They are compatible with standard hiking socks.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be applied with a cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials. Ensure they are completely dry before storing or wearing.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
