FAQs

How do I determine the correct size for my child?

It is recommended to measure your child's foot length accurately. Compare this measurement to the Geox sizing chart. Since fit can vary, trying them on in person or ordering a couple of sizes to try at home is often the best approach.

Can the insole be replaced with an orthopedic one?

Yes, the insole is removable, which allows for the insertion of custom orthopedic insoles if required for your child's specific needs.

Are these trainers suitable for all weather conditions?

These trainers are best suited for dry to mildly wet conditions. They are not fully waterproof, so prolonged exposure to heavy rain may affect comfort and shoe longevity. Ensure they are dried thoroughly if they get wet.

What is the main benefit of the Washiba design?

The Washiba design prioritizes freedom of movement and comfort for active children, combining a sporty aesthetic with practical features like the double riptape closure for easy wear.

How should I clean the white leather-effect material?

Wipe the material with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely.

What is the main difference between Washiba and Washiba B models?

While both are part of the Geox trainer range for children, specific design elements, materials, or colorways might differ between the Washiba and Washiba B series. Refer to individual product descriptions for exact details.

Troubleshooting

Riptape not sticking securely

Ensure the riptape surfaces are clean and free from debris. Gently brush the hook and loop sides to remove any lint or dirt. If the riptape is worn out, it may need professional repair or replacement.

Child complains of discomfort

Verify the size is correct and that the straps are adjusted appropriately – not too tight or too loose. Check if the removable insole is correctly positioned. Consider if the sock thickness is appropriate for the shoe.

Material appears scuffed or marked

Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away surface marks. For more persistent marks, a specialized leather-effect cleaner may be used sparingly, following product instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trainers require no setup beyond ensuring the correct fit for your child. Simply adjust the riptape straps for a secure feel.

Compatibility:

Suitable for general everyday wear, light sports activities, and casual occasions. They pair well with jeans, leggings, shorts, and skirts.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Exterior: Wipe the leather-effect material with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the finish.
  • Cleaning the Interior: The removable insole can be taken out and hand-washed with mild soap and water. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting.
  • Drying: If the trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can cause the material to warp or crack.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and condition.
