These Karrimor Duma 6 running shoes are engineered to provide a supportive and comfortable experience for young runners. The combination of the EVA insole and Phylon midsole works in tandem to absorb impact effectively, making each step softer and reducing fatigue during activities like school sports, jogging in the park, or track practice. The lightweight design ensures that children can move freely without feeling weighed down, encouraging natural running form.
The hook and loop fastening is a key feature for independence, allowing children to secure their own shoes quickly and effectively, ensuring a snug fit that minimizes distractions from loose footwear. The seamless knitted upper conforms to the foot, offering a breathable and comfortable enclosure that helps prevent rubbing or blisters, which is crucial for maintaining comfort during physical activity. The heel pull tab further aids in quick transitions, making these shoes practical for active kids.
Getting started with your Karrimor Duma 6 running shoes is simple:
Slide In: Use the heel pull tab to help slide your foot into the shoe comfortably.
Secure Fastening: Adjust the hook and loop fastening across the top of your foot. Ensure it is snug enough to hold your foot securely without being uncomfortably tight.
Check Fit: Wiggle your toes to ensure there's enough room, and take a few steps to confirm the fit is comfortable and stable.
These shoes are designed for kids and are best suited for running and light athletic activities. They are specifically crafted to support entry-level runners and provide comfort and stability during these activities. The sizing adheres to UK children's foot sizes.
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your shoes:
Cleaning: To clean the seamless knitted upper, gently wipe with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive brushes, or scrubbing vigorously, as this can damage the material.
Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally at room temperature. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, and keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can cause materials to warp or degrade.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
