Full details

FAQs

How do I clean the suede on these trainers?

Use a specialized suede brush for general cleaning. For stains, a slightly damp cloth or a suede-specific cleaning product can be used, followed by air drying.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The trainers are made of suede and fabric, and are not inherently waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Consider using a suede protector spray for added water resistance.

How do the hook and loop straps work?

The hook and loop straps are designed for easy fastening. One side has hooks and the other has loops; when pressed together, they create a secure closure that children can manage themselves.

What is the typical fit of these trainers?

The Gola Viper Strap trainers have a standard fitting. It's advisable to measure your child's foot to ensure you select the most appropriate size.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

While they can handle light moisture, they are not designed for heavy rain. Prolonged exposure to water can damage the suede material.

What is the main advantage of the Viper Strap design?

The main advantage is the practical hook and loop fastening, which allows children to easily put on and take off their shoes independently, promoting self-reliance.

Troubleshooting

Shoes won't stay fastened

Ensure the hook and loop straps are clean and free of debris. Press firmly to secure them. If the fastening is worn out, it may be time to consider a new pair.

Suede looks dirty or matted

Use a suede brush to restore the nap of the material. For stains, try a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions, and allow to air dry.

Shoes smell unpleasant

Remove the insoles (if possible) and air them out separately. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake out. Ensure shoes are thoroughly dried after getting wet.

Sole feels slippery

Check the sole for wear and tear. Ensure it is clean of mud or debris, as this can affect grip. If the sole is significantly worn, performance may be reduced.
