Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unpack: Remove shoes from packaging.
- Lacing: Ensure laces are threaded through all eyelets. For first wear, loosen laces sufficiently to allow the foot to slide in easily.
- Fit Check: Place your infant's foot inside, ensuring there is about a thumb's width space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
- Secure Laces: Tighten laces evenly for a snug, comfortable fit, then tie a secure bow. Double knotting is recommended for active children to prevent laces from coming undone during play.
Compatibility
- Age Group: These shoes are designed for infants, specifically in UK Child Size 9.
- Gender: Unisex design, suitable for all infants.
- Material: Made with a leather upper and synthetic sole, offering a blend of traditional material and modern durability.
Care
Maintaining the quality and appearance of your Kickers Kick Hi Classic shoes is straightforward with a few key steps:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather upper regularly with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner according to product instructions.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out or cracking. This is especially important if the shoes are frequently exposed to different weather conditions.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
- Sole Care: Clean the rubber sole unit and aggressive tread regularly to maintain traction. Use a stiff brush to remove embedded dirt and debris.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
