FAQs

Are these shoes truly waterproof?

Yes, the Regatta Holcombe IEP Junior Walking Shoes are designed with a waterproof and breathable membrane to keep feet dry in wet conditions. Proper care and occasional DWR re-application will help maintain this performance.

What activities are these shoes best suited for?

These shoes are ideal for children's outdoor adventures, including woodland explorations, mini hikes, nature walks, and general active play on varied terrains.

How should I clean these walking shoes?

Remove loose dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Clean soiled areas with lukewarm water and a gentle cloth. Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.

Do these shoes offer ankle support?

Yes, their mid-height design provides enhanced ankle support compared to low-cut shoes, offering more stability on uneven paths.

Are they heavy for kids to wear?

These shoes are constructed for durability and protection, which means they are designed to be sturdy rather than ultra-lightweight. They are appropriate for the intended outdoor activities.

What is the material used for these shoes?

The primary material is Polyester, which contributes to their durable and weather-resistant properties.

Troubleshooting

Child's feet feel damp or wet inside the shoes

First, ensure the shoes are laced correctly and that socks are not drawing moisture from outside. Check for any visible damage to the waterproof membrane. If the issue persists and the outer fabric is 'wetting out' (absorbing water), the DWR finish may need re-application using a suitable waterproof spray.

Reduced grip on previously traversable surfaces

Clean the soles thoroughly to remove any caked-on mud, debris, or small stones that might be compromising traction. Inspect the outsole for excessive wear. If the treads are significantly worn down, the shoe's grip performance will naturally diminish.

Discomfort or rubbing during wear

Ensure the shoes are the correct size and fit. Have your child wear appropriate hiking socks, which are typically thicker and provide better cushioning. Lacing technique can also affect comfort; try adjusting the tightness, ensuring it's snug but not overly constrictive, especially around the ankle.

Pros and Cons

Cons

  • Requires specific cleaning and occasional treatment to maintain waterproofing effectiveness

The Regatta Holcombe IEP Junior Walking Shoes are ready to wear right out of the box. Simply have your child put them on, adjust the lacing for a secure and comfortable fit, and they are good to go for their next adventure.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your Regatta Holcombe IEP Junior Walking Shoes:

  1. Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt and mud by tapping the soles together. Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with lukewarm water to gently clean the outer surfaces. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials and waterproof membrane.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: While designed to be waterproof, the outer material's DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish can wear off over time. If you notice water no longer beads off the surface, consider treating them with a suitable DWR spray specifically designed for outdoor footwear. Follow the product manufacturer's instructions for application.
  4. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area when not in use.
