Adidas Terrex Hiking Shoes - Brown - Size UK 5.5

Place your child's foot on the sockliner where the adiFIT measurement is printed. Ensure their longest toe aligns with the correct marking for their size. There should be a little room for growth, but not so much that their foot slides excessively.

These shoes feature a textile upper with synthetic overlays and are designed for general hiking and outdoor play. They offer some water resistance but are not fully waterproof. For very wet conditions, consider waterproof-specific footwear.

Using recycled materials helps reduce waste and reliance on virgin resources, lowering the overall environmental footprint of the product.

While primarily designed for hiking, their supportive and grippy nature makes them suitable for other outdoor activities like walking, playground play, and light trail running.

The stack height is 20 mm at the heel and 12 mm at the forefoot, resulting in a midsole drop of 8 mm. This provides a balanced feel and natural foot movement.

It's recommended to check the fit every few months, or more frequently if your child complains of discomfort, as children's feet grow rapidly.

Ensure the laces are properly adjusted. Use the adiFIT insole measuring tool to verify the shoe size is correct for your child's foot. If the fit is consistently an issue, consider a larger size or a different model.

Clean the Traxion outsole to remove any mud or debris that might be hindering grip. Check for excessive wear on the outsole; if significantly worn, replacement may be necessary.

Inspect the textile upper and synthetic overlays for any tears or significant scuffs. Clean gently as per care instructions. Minor scuffs are normal wear for hiking shoes.
