FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for children who are just learning to walk?
Yes, the redesigned toe box, midfoot, and supportive preformed sole structure offer the flexibility and support crucial for toddlers, including those taking their first steps.
How do I ensure I choose the correct size for my toddler?
We recommend measuring your toddler's foot and consulting Nike's official size chart. Toddlers grow rapidly, so regular checks are advised. There should be a small thumb's width of space between their longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Are these trainers waterproof?
While the trainers are built for active play 'whatever the weather,' they are not fully waterproof. They can handle light moisture, but for heavy rain or deep puddles, dedicated waterproof footwear would be more appropriate.
What kind of materials are these trainers made from?
The upper is made from a synthetic leather blend, incorporating recycled materials, and the sole features durable man-made components.
How do the strap fastenings work and are they secure?
The trainers feature hook-and-loop strap fastenings that allow for easy adjustment and a secure, snug fit, making them simple for parents to put on and take off.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and structure of the trainers. Please follow the care instructions for hand cleaning with a damp cloth.
Do these trainers provide good grip for active toddlers?
Yes, the sole is designed with a pivot point and underfoot grooves, which enhance traction and targeted flexibility, providing good grip for active play.
Troubleshooting
Straps don't stay fastened or feel loose.
Ensure the straps are clean and free of debris that might hinder adhesion. Press them down firmly to secure. If the issue persists, the trainers might be too large, or the straps could be worn. Check sizing.
My toddler's feet seem uncomfortable or red after wearing.
Check the fit immediately. The trainers might be too small, too tight, or socks might be causing friction. Ensure there's a thumb's width of space past the longest toe. Try different socks, or allow for a brief 'break-in' period.
The trainers get dirty very quickly.
Toddlers are active! Regular cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap (as per care instructions) will help maintain their appearance. Consider a protective spray designed for synthetic materials, if desired.
My child's feet feel hot or sweaty.
While the trainers offer comfort, man-made uppers can sometimes be less breathable than natural materials in very warm conditions. Ensure your child wears appropriate, breathable socks. If concern persists, consider airing out the shoes regularly.
Soles seem less flexible than expected, hindering movement.
While designed for flexibility, new trainers can sometimes feel a bit stiff initially. A short break-in period during play should help. Also, double-check that the size is correct, as ill-fitting shoes can restrict natural foot movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Open Straps: Fully open the strap fastenings on each trainer.
Insert Foot: Gently guide your toddler's foot into the trainer, ensuring their heel is at the back.
Adjust Straps: Close the straps firmly over the top of the foot. Ensure a snug fit that is not too tight, leaving a small amount of room for movement without the foot sliding.
Check Fit: Observe your child walking or standing. Their toes should have a small amount of wiggle room, and the heel should not slip out.

Age Group: Specifically designed for toddlers.
Gender: Unisex design, suitable for all children.
Sizing: Available in toddler UK sizes, such as UK 1 for this specific variant. Refer to Nike's official size guide for precise measurements.
Activity: Ideal for everyday wear, walking, running, and light play activities.
Care & Maintenance
Cleaning: For regular cleaning, wipe the man-made upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials.
Stain Removal: For tougher stains, a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) can be used gently with a small amount of mild detergent.
Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve material integrity.
Odor Control: If odors develop, remove insoles (if removable) and air them out. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb smells, then shake it out.
Inspection: Regularly check the strap fastenings and sole for any signs of wear or damage to ensure continued safety and support.
