FAQs
Are Kickers Kick Hi Core Shoes waterproof?
While the leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, these boots are not designed to be fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion should be avoided. We recommend treating them with a water-resistant spray for added protection in damp conditions.
How often should I clean and condition the leather?
For optimal care, clean the boots after each significant use. Condition the leather every few weeks, or more frequently if you wear them daily or expose them to harsh conditions, to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking.
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
Kickers Kick Hi boots typically offer a comfortable fit. While they may require a short break-in period, the leather will gradually adapt to the shape of your foot. If you have particularly wide feet, it's always recommended to try them on to ensure comfort.
Can I replace the laces if they get damaged?
Yes, the laces are replaceable. You can purchase standard thick boot laces of appropriate length to maintain the original look and functionality of your Kickers Kick Hi Core Shoes.
How long do these shoes typically last?
With proper care and maintenance, Kickers Kick Hi Core Shoes are known for their durability and can last for several years of regular wear, thanks to their high-quality leather construction and robust sole.
What is the sizing like for Kickers Kick Hi?
Kickers sizing generally runs true to UK sizes. As this is a UK 4, it corresponds to a standard adult UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying both or referring to a Kickers specific size guide.
Troubleshooting
My Kickers feel stiff and uncomfortable when new.
This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and consider wearing thicker socks. The leather will soften and conform to your foot over time. You can also apply a leather conditioner to help expedite the softening process.
The leather looks dry or has scuff marks.
Clean the boots with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Apply a quality leather conditioner or cream, rubbing it in gently. For scuffs, use a black leather polish to cover the marks and restore the finish. Regular conditioning prevents dryness.
The laces keep coming undone.
Ensure you are tying your laces securely, possibly using a double knot. Check the metal eyelets for any sharp edges that might be fraying the laces; if so, replace the laces with new, durable ones.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup
- Lacing: Unlace the boots fully before putting them on. Insert your foot, ensuring your heel is comfortably seated at the back.
- Adjusting: Start lacing from the bottom, pulling the laces firmly but not too tightly through each metal eyelet.
- Secure Fit: Tie a secure knot or bow. Ensure the fit is snug around your ankle without restricting movement.
Compatibility

- Wardrobe Versatility: These black leather boots are highly versatile, pairing well with school uniforms, casual attire like jeans, chinos, and even more dressed-up casual looks.
- Activity Suitability: Ideal for daily school wear, urban walking, and general casual outings.
Care
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe off dirt and dust with a soft, damp cloth after each wear. For tougher grime, use a dedicated leather cleaner.
- Conditioning: Apply a good quality leather conditioner or cream regularly (e.g., monthly, or more often with frequent wear) to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking.
- Polishing: For a polished look, use black shoe polish and buff with a brush or cloth.
- Drying: If the boots get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators or sunlight).
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Submersion: Do not machine wash or fully submerge the boots in water, as this can damage the leather.
