FAQs

Are these trainers truly waterproof or water-resistant?

These trainers feature a waterproof synthetic upper, designed to keep feet dry in wet conditions.

How do I ensure I order the correct size for my child?

It is recommended to measure your child's foot from heel to toe and compare it with the Skechers sizing guide for UK children's sizes. The specified size is UK 12 children's foot.

Can these trainers be worn in hot weather?

The fleece lining provides warmth, making them best suited for cooler or moderate temperatures. For very hot weather, they might be warmer than desired.

How easy is it for children to put these shoes on themselves?

The adaptive closure system with stretch laces and a hook-and-loop strap is designed for easy on-and-off, promoting independence in children.

What activities are these trainers best suited for?

They are ideal for everyday casual wear, outdoor adventures, playing in parks, and light trail exploration, especially in damp or cool conditions.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand-clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.

What colours are available for this model?

This specific model features a blue and red colour scheme.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty securing the hook-and-loop strap

Ensure the strap is aligned properly before fastening. If the hook-and-loop material has lost its grip, clean both surfaces gently with a dry brush.

Feet feel too warm

While fleece-lined for warmth, ensure socks are breathable. For very hot weather, consider alternative footwear. Allow shoes to air out after use.

Sizing seems off

Measure your child's feet accurately using a Brannock device or by tracing their foot on paper. Refer to the Skechers size chart and compare to the UK size. Ensure heel-to-toe measurement is correct.

Waterproofing effectiveness decreases

Inspect the shoe for any tears or damage to the synthetic upper. Regular cleaning with appropriate products can help maintain the waterproof finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the correct size is selected for optimal fit and comfort.

Compatibility: Suitable for children's casual wear and light outdoor activities. Designed for unisex use.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the waterproof synthetic upper with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Insole: The cushioned insole can typically be spot-cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to air dry completely.
  3. Drying: If the shoes become wet inside, stuff them with newspaper or a towel to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources.
  4. Avoid Machine Washing/Drying: Do not put these trainers in a washing machine or dryer, as this can damage the materials and construction.
