FAQs

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

These trainers are designed to be true to size. We recommend ordering your child's usual UK shoe size. If you're unsure, measure your child's foot and compare it to a standard adidas kids' sizing chart.

Are these trainers suitable for all types of sports?

The adidas Racer TR23 trainers are ideal for general active play, running around, and light sports activities due to their comfort and supportive design. For specialized, high-performance sports, dedicated athletic footwear might be more appropriate.

Can my child put these trainers on by themselves?

Yes, absolutely! The combination of elastic laces and a convenient hook-and-loop strap is specifically designed to make it easy for children to put on and take off their trainers independently.

How should I clean the mesh material?

To clean the mesh upper, gently wipe it with a soft cloth dampened with water and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid scrubbing too hard to protect the material. Allow them to air dry completely.

Do these trainers provide good arch support?

The Cloudfoam midsole provides general cushioning and comfort. For children requiring specific arch support due to foot conditions, consult with a podiatrist or consider custom insoles.

What is the benefit of the Cloudfoam midsole?

The Cloudfoam midsole offers superior cushioning and shock absorption, providing a soft, comfortable feel with every step. This helps reduce fatigue and enhances comfort during long periods of wear and active play.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size; these are true to size. Adjust the hook-and-loop strap to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. For persistent issues, re-measure your child's foot and consult a sizing guide.

Foot feels sweaty or hot.

The mesh upper provides breathability. Ensure your child is wearing appropriate socks (e.g., moisture-wicking materials) and consider allowing the trainers to air out after active use.

Trainers get dirty quickly.

Kids' shoes often get dirty! Regularly wipe down the trainers with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher spots, a soft brush can be used on the midsole and outer sole. Refer to general care instructions above.

Hook-and-loop strap loses stickiness.

Clean any lint, dirt, or debris from both sides of the hook-and-loop fastener using a stiff brush or tweezers. This often restores its adhesive properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with your adidas Racer TR23 trainers is straightforward:

  1. Sizing: These trainers are designed to be true to size. Order your child's usual UK shoe size. Half sizes are available in selected ranges for a more precise fit.
  2. Fitting: Gently loosen the hook-and-loop strap. Use the pull tab on the heel to guide your child's foot into the trainer. Secure the hook-and-loop strap to achieve a snug, comfortable fit without being too tight.

Compatibility

These trainers are:

  • Age Group: Specifically designed for kids (available in sizes 10 younger - 5 older).
  • Gender: Unisex design, suitable for both boys and girls.
  • Activity: Compatible with a wide range of casual and active settings, from school to playgrounds.
  • Apparel: Easily pair with athletic wear, jeans, shorts, and other casual clothing.

Care Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the trainers' appearance and extend their lifespan:

  • Cleaning: For general dirt and grime, wipe the mesh upper and midsole with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
  • Odor Control: For occasional odor, remove insoles (if removable) and allow them to air out. You can also use shoe deodorizers.
  • Washing Machine: It is generally not recommended to machine wash trainers as it can damage the materials and adhesive. Hand cleaning is preferred.
