FAQs
How do I clean the leather on my Kickers Kick T Bar shoes?
Wipe dirt with a damp cloth. For scuffs, use black shoe polish and buff. Apply leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather soft and prevent cracking.
Are these shoes suitable for school wear?
Yes, their durable black leather and robust construction make them an excellent and popular choice for school uniforms and daily wear.
What does 'T Bar' mean?
'T Bar' refers to the style of the strap that forms a 'T' shape over the instep of the foot, connecting to the buckle and offering a secure fit.
Are Kickers Kick T Bar shoes true to size?
Kickers generally run true to size, but we recommend measuring your child's foot and comparing it to a Kickers size chart for the most accurate fit. This specific pair is a UK 5 for children.
How do I prevent scuffs on the leather?
While difficult to completely prevent with active children, regularly applying leather protector spray and promptly polishing any scuffs will help maintain their appearance. Teach children to avoid dragging their feet.
Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
While the leather offers some resistance, these shoes are not fully waterproof. If they get wet, stuff them with newspaper and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure the correct size was purchased. Leather shoes can feel stiff initially; wear them for short periods to break them in. If discomfort persists, consult a shoe fitting specialist.
Leather looks dull or scuffed.
Clean the shoes thoroughly with a damp cloth, then apply a black shoe polish. Buff with a clean, soft cloth for a shine. Regular conditioning can also help restore luster.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped within the sole or between parts of the shoe. Try dusting a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe, under the insole if removable, or between the tongue and upper. Ensure shoes are completely dry.
Strap doesn't stay fastened or is too loose/tight.
Check the buckle mechanism for any debris or damage. Ensure the strap is adjusted to the appropriate hole for a snug but comfortable fit. If the buckle is damaged, contact customer support.

Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your leather Kickers, follow these care steps:

- Polish: Use a black shoe polish to cover scuffs and maintain a rich, lustrous finish. Buff with a soft cloth for shine.
- Protect: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains.
- Dry Properly: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Never put them in a dryer.
