FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, the Kickers Kick T Bar Shoes are designed with durability and comfort in mind, making them ideal for everyday use for active infants.
How do I clean the patent leather?
Simply wipe the patent leather upper with a damp, soft cloth to remove dirt. For extra shine or minor scuffs, a specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly can be used.
What age group are 'infant' shoes for?
Infant shoes typically refer to sizes for very young children, generally from birth up to around 18-24 months, depending on foot growth. A UK size 6 would typically be for a toddler in this age range.
Are these shoes slip-resistant?
The iconic durable sole is designed to provide good grip and stability, which helps prevent slips, especially for new walkers.
Can these shoes accommodate orthotics?
Due to the infant sizing and structured design, these shoes may have limited space for additional orthotics or inserts. It's recommended to consult with a professional if custom orthotics are needed.
How do I ensure I choose the correct size?
Measure your child's foot length and width accurately, and compare it to the Kickers sizing guide. Always allow about a thumb's width of space at the end of the longest toe for growth and movement. It's best to try them on and have your child walk in them to check the fit.
What is the purpose of the 'triple stitching'?
The signature triple stitching is a key design element that reinforces the shoe's construction, enhancing its overall durability and longevity, while also serving as an iconic Kickers brand identifier.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Ensure the buckle is adjusted correctly. For tightness, try loosening the buckle; for looseness, tighten it until snug but not constricting. Always check for adequate toe room and heel slip.
Buckle is difficult to fasten
Ensure the strap is aligned properly with the buckle. If new, the leather may be stiff; gently work the strap through the buckle a few times to soften it. Check for any debris in the buckle mechanism.
Scuffs or marks on the patent leather
Wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn scuffs, use a dedicated patent leather cleaner or a tiny amount of petroleum jelly applied with a soft cloth, then buff gently. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Exceptional Durability: Built to withstand the rigors of active infant play and daily wear.
- Classic & Stylish Design: The T-bar patent leather look is timeless and versatile for various occasions, especially school.
- Secure & Adjustable Fit: Buckle fastening provides peace of mind that shoes will stay on and can be adjusted for comfort.
- Easy to Clean Upper: Patent leather can be wiped clean, simplifying maintenance for busy parents.
- Comfort for Little Feet: Padded collar offers added comfort and helps prevent chafing.
Cons
- Sizing Specificity: As infant shoes, they are designed for a particular age group and may quickly be outgrown.
- Requires Regular Wiping: Patent leather, while easy to clean, may show dust or smudges more readily than matte finishes.
- Limited Flexibility (Initially): The durable construction might feel a bit stiff when new, requiring a short break-in period.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Open the Buckle: Unfasten the buckle fully to create enough space for your child's foot.
- Position the Foot: Gently slide your child's foot into the shoe, ensuring their heel is seated comfortably at the back.
- Fasten the Buckle: Pull the strap across the top of the foot and thread it through the buckle. Adjust for a snug, secure fit without being too tight. You should be able to slide one finger easily under the strap.
- Check Fit: Observe your child walking (or standing) to ensure the shoes are comfortable and do not slip off. Check for adequate toe room (about a thumb's width from the longest toe to the end of the shoe).
Compatibility
These shoes are specifically designed for infants and are in UK size 6. They are an excellent choice for:
- Everyday wear for toddlers and early walkers.
- School or nursery uniforms due to their classic black patent finish.
- Occasions requiring a smart, durable shoe.
Care Instructions
- Cleaning: For the patent leather upper, simply wipe with a damp, soft cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, use a small amount of mild soap and water, then wipe clean. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Polishing: While patent leather doesn't require traditional polishing, you can use a patent leather cleaner or a tiny drop of petroleum jelly on a soft cloth to restore shine and remove minor scuffs.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them lightly with newspaper and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees or stuffing with paper can help maintain their shape when not in use for extended periods.
