FAQs

How do I clean the patent leather on these shoes?

Wipe the patent leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a small amount of mild soap solution or a patent leather cleaner. Always dry thoroughly with a clean cloth to maintain the shine.

Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?

Yes, Kickers Fragma T-Bar Shoes are designed with durability and comfort in mind, making them an excellent choice for daily school wear, including active play.

What is the sole made of?

The shoes feature a ridged rubber sole, which is known for its durability and excellent traction.

My child has wide feet; will these shoes fit?

These shoes are designed with a 'Regular' shoe width. While they accommodate most feet comfortably, for particularly wide feet, it's always best to try them on to ensure a proper fit.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the patent leather offers some water resistance, these shoes are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided. If they get wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat.

How do I know what size to buy?

It is recommended to have your child's feet measured professionally. Ensure there is approximately a thumb's width of space between their longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Ensure the hook and loop strap is adjusted correctly. It should be snug enough to hold the foot, but not so tight as to cause discomfort. If the size is incorrect, consider having your child's feet measured.

Scuff marks on the patent leather.

Gently wipe the scuff with a soft, damp cloth. For more persistent marks, a specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly on a cotton swab can sometimes reduce their appearance. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Squeaking noise when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped between the sole and the shoe's interior, or friction. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole if removable. If the sole itself is squeaking, ensure it is clean and dry. Persistent squeaking may indicate a manufacturing issue.

Lack of grip on certain surfaces.

Regularly inspect the ridged rubber sole for wear or embedded debris (like small stones or dirt). Clean the sole thoroughly to ensure maximum traction. If the sole is excessively worn, it may be time for new shoes.

Unpleasant odor from inside the shoes.

Ensure shoes are aired out regularly after wear. Remove insoles if possible and air them separately. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the shoes overnight (remove before wear).

Pros

  • Durable construction for daily wear and tear.
  • Easy to put on and take off with hook and loop fastening.
  • Classic, stylish design suitable for school uniforms and smart casual wear.
  • Good traction provided by the ridged rubber sole.
  • Comfortable for all-day wear.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup:

  1. Unpack: Remove shoes from packaging.
  2. Check Fit: Have your child try on both shoes. Ensure there is about a thumb's width space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
  3. Adjust Strap: Fasten the `hook and loop` strap, ensuring it's secure but comfortable. It should hold the foot firmly without pinching or allowing excessive movement.

Compatibility:

  • School Uniforms: The black patent finish and classic design make these shoes highly compatible with most school uniform policies.
  • Casual Wear: Can also be paired with smart casual outfits for everyday wear.
  • Footwear: Best worn with socks to ensure breathability and comfort.

Care & Maintenance:

  • Cleaning the Patent Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the patent leather upper regularly. For stubborn marks, a small amount of mild soap solution can be used, followed by a clean, damp cloth.
  • Maintaining Shine: After cleaning, a patent leather conditioner or polish designed for patent materials can be applied to maintain the high-shine finish. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Sole Care: Regularly check the ridged rubber sole for embedded debris (small stones, dirt) and remove them to maintain traction and prevent damage.
  • Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
  • Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  • Avoid Scuffs: While durable, patent leather can scuff. Encourage children to be mindful of surfaces and avoid dragging their feet.
