The Skechers Selectors Kids Trainers are designed for daily wear and active play, making them a versatile choice for children. The combination of rip-tape fastenings and stretch laces is particularly beneficial for younger children learning to dress themselves, fostering independence. The lightweight design and supportive soles ensure that little feet remain comfortable during school, playground activities, or casual outings. The breathable textile uppers contribute to a fresh feeling, even after hours of activity. For example, a child wearing these trainers can transition from a morning at school to an afternoon of playing tag without discomfort or needing to change shoes, making them a practical choice for busy families.
To put on the trainers, simply loosen the rip-tape fastening completely. Guide your child's foot into the trainer, allowing the stretch laces to adapt to their foot shape. Once the foot is comfortably in place, secure the rip-tape firmly across the top of the foot to achieve a snug but not overly tight fit.
These trainers are designed for girls in the kids age group. They feature a standard width fit, which is suitable for most average foot widths. They are not recommended for children who require specific narrow or wide-fit footwear without trying them on first.
Proper care will help extend the life of these trainers:
Cleaning the Uppers: For the textile uppers, gently wipe away dirt and stains using a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Cleaning the Soles: The rubber sole can be cleaned with a brush (like an old toothbrush) and water to remove mud or debris.
Drying: Always air dry the trainers naturally at room temperature. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and adhesives. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause cracking or shrinking.
