FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is recommended to hand-clean these trainers with a damp cloth to preserve the material quality and bungee lace tension.

Do I need to tie these laces?

No, these trainers feature a convenient bungee lace system that provides a secure fit without the need for manual tying.

Are they suitable for wide feet?

The bungee system offers some stretch, but it is a fixed-tension design. It is best to check the fit against the child's specific sizing requirements.

What is the primary material used?

The 740 series uses high-quality athletic materials chosen for breathability and durability during active wear.

Can these be used for sports?

They are ideal for general everyday activity and school play, though specialized sports might require specific athletic footwear.

How do I determine the right size?

Please refer to the UK children's size guide and measure the child's foot length against the manufacturer's provided measurements for the most accurate fit.

Troubleshooting

Bungee lace feels too loose

Ensure the foot is inserted fully to the heel; if the fit remains loose, the shoe may be too large for the child's current foot size.

Surface dirt accumulation

Wipe down with a damp cloth immediately after use to prevent dirt from setting into the fabric fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these shoes utilize a bungee lace system, there is no need for initial adjustment or tying. To ensure longevity, keep the trainers away from excessive mud or wet environments, as the white fabric elements can absorb stains. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the soles and a damp cloth with mild soap for surface marks. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the materials and the elasticity of the bungee laces. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain the shape and integrity of the cushioning.
