FAQs
How do the lights in the outsole work?
The multicoloured lights in the outsole are activated by the impact of each step. They are designed to reflect rainbow colours onto the ground as the child walks or runs.
Can these trainers be washed in a washing machine?
No, these trainers should not be machine washed. Hand-cleaning with a damp cloth is the recommended method to preserve the materials and the light-up mechanism.
What material are these trainers made from?
The trainers feature a combination of breathable mesh for the upper and tumbled faux leather for accents and durability. The outsole contains the lighting components.
Are the lights replaceable or rechargeable?
The lights are integrated into the outsole and are not designed to be replaced or recharged. They function for the lifespan of the shoe's light-up feature.
What age group are these trainers suitable for?
These trainers are specifically designed for kids, indicated by the 'Junior' series and children's sizing.
How should I care for the faux leather parts?
Wipe faux leather gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For deeper cleaning, a product specifically designed for faux leather may be used cautiously.
Do these trainers offer good ankle support?
These are low-top trainers designed for general activity. While they provide a secure fit, they are not specifically designed for high-level ankle support needed in certain sports.
Troubleshooting
Lights are not working
Ensure the shoes have been worn sufficiently to activate the lights. Check for any visible damage to the sole. If the issue persists, the battery may be depleted, and while not replaceable, the shoes remain functional trainers.
Shoes appear dirty or stained
Use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to gently clean the affected areas. For stubborn marks on faux leather, a specialized leather cleaner might be considered, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Foot discomfort or poor fit
Ensure the correct size has been selected. These trainers are designed with a standard fit; consider wider-fitting alternatives if necessary. Check that the laces or fastenings are adjusted appropriately for a secure but not constricting fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no setup. The light-up feature is activated by movement and is ready to go straight out of the box.
Compatibility: Suitable for general everyday wear, including school and recreational activities. Designed primarily for walking and light running.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and faux leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Wipe the sole with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the shoes in water, as this can damage the lighting mechanism.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight.
- Light Maintenance: The lights are designed for durability. If a light stops working, it is usually due to the battery within the unit being depleted or a connection issue, and the shoe can still be worn as a regular trainer.
