FAQs

How do I clean the patent leather on these shoes?

Wipe the shoes with a soft, damp cloth after each wear. For deeper cleaning or to restore shine, use a specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly applied with a soft cloth, then buff with a clean, dry cloth.

Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?

Yes, these Kickers Kick T Bar V Shoes are designed for daily school wear. Their durable construction, comfortable lining, and easy-to-fasten strap make them practical for active children, while the patent leather provides a smart appearance.

What is the benefit of the hook and loop fastening?

The hook and loop fastening allows children to easily put on and take off their shoes independently, promoting self-sufficiency. It also provides a secure and adjustable fit for various foot shapes, ensuring comfort throughout the day.

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

We recommend measuring your child's feet and comparing the measurements to a standard UK children's shoe size chart. It's best to measure both feet and use the larger measurement. Allow for a small amount of growing room.

Are these shoes waterproof?

While the patent leather provides some resistance to light moisture, these shoes are not fully waterproof. We advise avoiding heavy rain or prolonged exposure to water to protect the material and prolong the life of the shoes.

Can I polish these shoes with regular shoe polish?

No, regular shoe polish is not suitable for patent leather as it can dull the shiny finish. Only use products specifically designed for patent leather, or follow the cleaning and shine restoration tips provided in the care section.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs or marks appear on the patent leather.

Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, apply a small amount of patent leather cleaner or petroleum jelly to a soft cloth and rub lightly, then buff with a clean, dry cloth. This can help reduce the visibility of minor scuffs and restore shine.

The hook and loop strap isn't holding securely.

Check the hook and loop fasteners for any trapped dirt, lint, or debris that might be preventing proper adhesion. Clean the fasteners with a stiff brush or a pair of tweezers to remove obstructions. Ensure the strap is aligned correctly when fastening.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable for the child.

First, ensure the correct size has been purchased. If the size is correct, new shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Encourage the child to wear them for short periods initially. Check if socks are too thick or if the strap is fastened too tightly. If discomfort persists, consult a shoe fitting specialist.

Shoes are losing their original shine.

Regularly clean the patent leather as described in the care instructions. To enhance shine, use a patent leather conditioner or a small amount of silicone-based spray polish applied to a soft cloth, then buffed to a high sheen.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Smart, Classic Appearance: The patent leather and T-bar design offer a timeless, polished look.
  • Easy for Kids to Fasten: The hook and loop strap promotes independence and ensures a secure fit without laces.
  • Durable Construction: Built with a robust rubber sole and quality materials to withstand daily wear.
  • Comfortable Interior: PU lining adds to the comfort for all-day use.
  • Recognizable Branding: Iconic Kickers details add a touch of heritage and style.

Cons

  • Requires Specific Care: Patent leather can show scuffs and marks more prominently than matte finishes.
  • Less Breathable: Patent leather may be less breathable compared to natural leathers, potentially leading to warmer feet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

  1. Fitting: Ensure the child is wearing appropriate socks. Open the hook and loop strap completely.
  2. Putting On: Slide the child's foot into the shoe, ensuring the heel is seated comfortably at the back.
  3. Adjusting the Strap: Bring the T-bar strap over the instep and secure the hook and loop fastener firmly but not too tightly. There should be enough room for a finger to slide comfortably under the strap.

Compatibility

  • Sizing: These shoes are available in children's UK sizes, suitable for toddlers and kids. Always refer to a sizing guide if uncertain, and consider measuring the child's foot for the most accurate fit.
  • Usage: Ideal for school wear, formal occasions, and general daily use where a smart, durable shoe is required. They pair well with school uniforms and smart casual outfits.

Care

  1. Initial Cleaning: After each wear, wipe the shoes with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid abrasive materials.
  2. Maintaining Shine: For patent leather, use a specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly on a soft cloth to restore shine and remove minor scuffs. Buff gently with a clean, dry cloth.
  3. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources, which can damage the patent finish.
  4. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees or stuffed with paper to help them retain their shape.
