FAQs

Can these be used for school sports?

While they can be used for various sports, they are optimized for hockey-specific surfaces and may wear out quickly if used daily on asphalt or hard concrete.

Are these shoes waterproof?

They are designed with durable materials that resist moisture, but they are not fully waterproof or submersible.

How do I choose the right size for my child?

Measure the child's feet in the afternoon when they are at their largest, and ensure there is about a thumb's width of space at the front for comfort.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable to allow for cleaning or the use of specialized orthotics if needed.

How often should I replace these trainers?

Depending on the frequency of play, you should inspect the tread and cushioning every season; if the grip is worn smooth, it is time for a replacement for safety reasons.

Troubleshooting

Trainer feels slippery on the pitch

Ensure the outsole tread is free from mud or built-up debris. If the tread is clean, check if the pitch surface is overly wet or worn.

Foot feels unstable during turns

Double-check that the laces are tightened correctly to lock the heel in place, and ensure the size is appropriate for the child's foot.

Excessive odor or moisture

Remove the insoles after play to allow them to air out separately and ensure the main body of the shoe has adequate ventilation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent traction on synthetic hockey pitches
  • Lightweight build prevents heavy feet during long games
  • Effective shock absorption via EVA technology
  • Durable materials for extended wear
  • Supportive design for developing athletic foot shapes

  • Not intended for everyday casual or school use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Kookaburra Orbit trainers, follow these care steps:

  1. Initial Fit: Ensure the trainers are worn with appropriate sports socks to achieve the correct fit and comfort level.
  2. Cleaning: Remove loose mud and debris from the outsole after each session using a soft brush. Wipe the upper with a damp cloth; avoid submerging them in water.
  3. Drying: Air-dry the shoes in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can damage the foam midsole and adhesives.
  4. Surface Compatibility: Stick to synthetic hockey pitches or grass fields to maximize the performance of the tread and ensure safety.
