FAQs

What age group are these trainers for?

These trainers are specifically designed for kids and juniors, with sizing available in children's UK sizes.

Are these suitable for serious running or sports?

While they offer comfort and cushioning for everyday activities and light play, they are best suited for casual wear and not intended for high-performance or specialized athletic training.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then rinse lightly and air dry.

What is the primary benefit of the EVA midsole?

The EVA midsole provides lightweight cushioning, absorbing shock and making the trainers comfortable for extended wear.

Can adults wear these trainers?

No, these trainers are specifically sized and designed for children and juniors. Adult sizing is not available for this model.

What does the TORSION System do?

The TORSION System provides midfoot support and allows the forefoot and rearfoot to move independently, enhancing stability.

What material is the outsole made of?

The outsole is made of rubber, which is known for its durability and grip.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Ensure the correct UK children's size has been purchased. Adjust lacing for a snugger or looser fit if possible, but proper sizing is key.

Traction feels poor.

Clean the rubber outsole to remove any debris or mud that might be hindering grip. Ensure the shoes are appropriate for the surface being used on.

Mesh upper shows signs of wear.

Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing that could damage the mesh fibers.

Discoloration of materials.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean according to care instructions to maintain color vibrancy.
