FAQs

How do the lights in the midsole work?

The lights are activated by the pressure of the child's step. Each time the shoe hits the ground, it triggers the lights in the midsole to illuminate. There is no on/off switch; they are designed to light up during movement.

Can these shoes be washed in a washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash or tumble dry these shoes. Machine washing can damage the electronic components of the light-up feature, as well as the glitter and fabric materials. Hand wash gently with a damp cloth.

What is the best way to clean the glitter and sequin parts?

Use a soft, dry cloth or a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe the glitter and sequin areas. Avoid harsh scrubbing, as this can cause the glitter to flake off or the sequins to detach.

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

These shoes are designed for casual wear and light activity. While they offer good traction and cushioning for everyday play, they are not specialized athletic shoes for high-impact sports like serious running or basketball.

How long do the lights typically last?

The lifespan of the lights depends on the frequency and intensity of use. They are powered by small, long-lasting batteries integrated into the sole. With typical wear, they should last for a considerable period, but they are not replaceable.

What is the main benefit of the dual fastening system?

The combination of Velcro straps and elastic laces provides a secure and adjustable fit. It makes the shoes easy for children to put on and take off independently, while also ensuring they stay comfortably on the foot during activity.

What materials are the shoes made from?

The upper is typically made from a fabric and glitter synthetic material. The midsole is designed for cushioning and housing the lights, and the outsole is made of flexible rubber for traction.

Troubleshooting

Lights are not working

Ensure the shoes have been worn recently to activate the pressure-sensitive lights. Check that the battery compartment (if applicable and accessible) is secure. If lights persist, there may be an internal issue.

Velcro strap not holding securely

Clean the Velcro surfaces to remove any lint or debris that might prevent a strong closure. Ensure the strap is aligned correctly when fastening.

Unusual odor developing

Air out the shoes in a well-ventilated area. Consider using a shoe deodorizer or baking soda inside the shoes overnight. Ensure feet are dry before wearing.

Glitter is shedding excessively

This is a common characteristic of glitter materials. Gently brush off any loose glitter. Avoid excessive rubbing on glittered areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These shoes require no setup. The light-up feature is activated by the child's movement. Ensure the Velcro straps are securely fastened and the elastic laces are snug for a proper fit.

Compatibility: Suitable for casual wear for young children. Not recommended for sports requiring specialized footwear.

Care: To maintain the appearance and functionality of the Skechers Flutter Heart Lights, clean them gently. Use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt and marks from the upper and midsole. Avoid soaking the shoes or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the fabric, glitter, and light-up components. Allow the shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
