FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for school uniforms?
Yes, with their classic black leather design and durable construction, Kickers Kick T-Bar Shoes are an excellent choice for school uniforms, offering both style and resilience.
How do I determine the correct size for my toddler?
We recommend measuring your toddler's foot and comparing it to a UK shoe size chart. For these specific shoes, the size is UK 9, suitable for toddlers. Allow a small amount of growing room.
Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
While the leather offers some natural resistance, these shoes are not fully waterproof. It's best to avoid heavy rain and puddles. If they get wet, follow the drying instructions in the 'Care' section.
What is the lining material?
The shoes feature a PU (Polyurethane) lining, chosen for its comfort and durability.
How often should I clean the shoes?
For best results and to maintain their appearance, we recommend wiping the shoes clean after each wear and polishing the leather regularly, especially if scuffs appear.
Are the soles non-slip?
The shoes are equipped with a durable rubber sole designed to provide reliable grip and traction on various surfaces, reducing the risk of slipping.
Is the buckle adjustable?
The buckle on the strap is primarily decorative. The main adjustment and fastening mechanism is the hook and loop closure, which offers easy and secure fitting.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Ensure you have the correct size. Check if the hook and loop strap is adjusted properly; it should be snug but not restrictive. Consider the thickness of socks worn.
Scuff marks appear on the leather
Clean the area with a damp cloth, then apply a suitable black leather polish or cream according to product instructions. Buff gently to restore shine.
Strap does not fasten securely
Check the hook and loop fasteners for dirt, lint, or wear. Clean them with a small brush or firm tape to remove debris. If heavily worn, the strap's effectiveness may diminish over time.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
Inspect the rubber sole for dirt or debris that might be reducing grip. Clean the sole with a damp cloth or stiff brush. If the sole appears excessively worn, it may be time for replacement shoes.
Shoes make a squeaking sound
This can sometimes happen with new shoes as components settle. Try sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder under the insole to reduce friction, or ensure the sole is completely dry after cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Getting your toddler ready is simple with the Kickers Kick T-Bar Shoes:
- Open the Strap: Fully open the hook and loop strap to create enough space for your toddler's foot.
- Insert Foot: Gently guide your toddler's foot into the shoe, ensuring their heel is comfortably seated at the back.
- Secure the Strap: Fasten the hook and loop strap, adjusting for a snug, yet comfortable fit. Ensure it's not too tight or too loose, allowing for natural foot movement without slipping.
Compatibility
These shoes are specifically designed for the toddler age group with a UK 9 foot size. While they offer a classic unisex black design, always refer to current foot measurements to ensure the best fit for your child.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Kickers Kick T-Bar Shoes:
- Daily Cleaning: Wipe off dirt and dust with a soft, damp cloth after each wear.
- Leather Care: For scuffs or to maintain the leather's shine, use a suitable black leather polish or cream. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth, let dry, then buff to a shine.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can crack the leather.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Sole Maintenance: Periodically check the rubber soles for embedded debris and clean with a stiff brush if necessary to maintain optimal grip.
