FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?
Yes, the Karrimor Duma 6 Running Shoes are designed for comfortable all-day wear and active play, making them suitable for school activities and general use.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Please follow the spot cleaning and air-drying instructions provided in the care section to maintain their quality and durability.
What kind of terrain are these shoes best for?
These shoes are best suited for general indoor and outdoor surfaces like playgrounds, pavements, schoolyards, and light track use. They are not specifically designed for rough trail conditions.
How do I ensure I choose the correct size for my child?
It is best to measure your child's foot length and compare it to a brand-specific sizing chart. Remember to account for growth and allow a small amount of space at the toe.
Do these shoes provide good arch support for kids?
The shoes feature an EVA insole and Phylon midsole for general cushioning and comfort, which offers a degree of support. For specific arch support needs, consult with a specialist if your child has particular foot requirements.
Is the seamless knitted upper waterproof?
The seamless knitted upper provides durability and flexibility, but its waterproofing capabilities are not specified. It is generally advised to avoid heavy rain or puddles to keep feet dry.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose despite fastening.
Ensure the correct size was purchased. If the size is correct, try adjusting the hook-and-loop strap carefully to find the optimal tension. Consider wearing different sock thicknesses.
Foot discomfort or rubbing.
Check for any debris inside the shoe. Ensure socks are worn and properly positioned. If discomfort persists, verify the shoe size and fit, as it might be too small or too large.
Shoes get dirty quickly after outdoor play.
Clean shoes regularly using the care instructions provided. For heavy mud, allow it to dry slightly before brushing off, then wipe with a damp cloth.
Hook-and-loop fastening isn't holding securely.
Clean any lint, dirt, or debris from both sides of the hook-and-loop fastener. This can often restore its adhesive strength. If heavily worn, it may indicate general wear and tear.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Sometimes a squeak can come from the insole rubbing against the shoe's base. Try removing the EVA insole, dusting lightly with baby powder, and reinserting. Ensure shoes are completely dry.
