Sondico Blaze Childrens Astro Turf Trainers - Grey - UK 1

No, these trainers are specifically designed for astro turf (artificial grass) surfaces. The moulded lugs on the outsole provide optimal traction on artificial turf but may not offer sufficient grip or could cause damage to natural grass pitches.

It is recommended to measure your child's foot length and compare it to a brand-specific size chart if available. Children's feet grow quickly, so ensuring a comfortable fit with a little room for growth without being too loose is ideal.

The upper of the Sondico Blaze trainers is made from durable synthetic leather, which offers good resilience, ease of maintenance, and a consistent feel for ball control.

While the synthetic leather upper offers some resistance to moisture, these trainers are not fully waterproof. They are designed to withstand normal playing conditions on astro turf but are not intended for heavy rain or water immersion.

To clean, wipe the synthetic leather upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the outsole, a brush can remove dirt and debris. Always allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.

These trainers are primarily designed for outdoor astro turf pitches. While they can be worn indoors, the outsole might not provide the same level of grip on smooth indoor surfaces as dedicated indoor football shoes.

Ensure the soles are clean of mud or debris. While designed for astro turf, certain types of artificial grass or worn pitches might affect grip. Confirm the playing surface is indeed astro turf.

Check the lacing system; loosen and re-lace to ensure an even, secure fit without being overly tight. Verify the correct size has been purchased, as an ill-fitting shoe will cause discomfort. The knitted ankle will adapt slightly over time.

Ensure the upper is clean; dirt or residue can reduce the effectiveness of the quilted and embossed details. Practice with the trainers to get accustomed to the feel and texture of the synthetic leather.

Remove insoles and allow the trainers to air out thoroughly after each use. Consider using an anti-bacterial shoe spray or placing baking soda in the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure trainers are fully dry before storage.
