FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for school use?
Yes, the durable design and neutral black options make them highly suitable for active school days and outdoor play.
Can these be worn in heavy rain?
The Isotex technology is waterproof, but because these are low-cut shoes, heavy rain may enter through the top collar if walking through deep puddles.
Are these true to size?
Yes, Regatta sizing is generally standard; however, we recommend accounting for the thickness of the socks your child will wear for hiking.
Do I need to spray them with a waterproof treatment?
They come with built-in waterproof technology. Over time, you may choose to apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to the exterior to keep water beading off the surface.
How do I secure the laces so they don't come undone?
Ensure you tie a secure double knot, as the smooth polyester laces can sometimes slip if only tied with a single bow.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feeling damp inside
Ensure the shoe is fully laced to prevent water from entering over the collar, and check that the waterproof coating hasn't been worn down by excessive abrasion.
Insole sliding during wear
Remove the insole, ensure the interior floor of the shoe is clean of debris, and re-insert ensuring it sits flat.
Difficulty cleaning tough mud
Use a specialized outdoor footwear cleaner designed for polyester fabrics, and avoid using harsh chemical detergents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Regatta Vendeavour shoes last throughout the season, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Cleaning: After muddy outings, allow the mud to dry naturally, then gently brush it off using a soft-bristled brush.
- Washing: Avoid machine washing. Wipe down the polyester upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as extreme heat can degrade the waterproof adhesive and damage the cushioning.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent mold growth on the fabric.
- Fit: Ensure socks are appropriate for hiking thickness; if the fit is too tight, it will compress the cushioning and reduce breathability.
