FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for school uniforms?

Yes, the Kickers Fragma Strap Leather Shoe in black, with its durable leather upper and classic design, is an excellent choice and meets the requirements of most school uniform policies.

How do I clean these shoes?

Wipe the smooth leather upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning or to restore shine, use a specialized leather cleaner and polish. Avoid submerging them in water.

Are the straps durable for active children?

The hook and loop strap fastening is designed for ease of use and durability. For optimal performance, ensure the straps are kept clean of debris, which can affect their grip over time.

What is the best way to ensure the correct fit for my child?

Always measure your child's feet regularly, as they grow quickly. Ensure there's about a thumb's width space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe, and that the shoe feels comfortable around the width and arch.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, these shoes are not waterproof. For heavy rain or puddles, it's advisable to wear waterproof footwear. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally.

Troubleshooting

Shoes appear scuffed or dull.

Clean the leather thoroughly with a damp cloth. Once dry, apply a leather conditioner or black shoe polish to restore the finish and shine. Buff with a clean cloth.

Hook and loop straps are not holding securely.

Check the hook and loop fasteners for lint, dirt, or debris. Use a stiff brush or a pair of tweezers to carefully remove any build-up. This will help restore their grip.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure the child is wearing appropriate socks. Check the sizing to confirm it's correct; children's feet grow quickly. The padded collar might need a short 'break-in' period. If discomfort persists, consult a shoe fitting expert.

Unpleasant odor from inside the shoes.

Allow the shoes to air out regularly. Consider using shoe deodorizers or sprinkling baking soda inside (remove before wearing). Ensure socks are changed daily to prevent moisture build-up.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setting up your Kickers Fragma Strap Leather Shoes is straightforward:

  2. Adjust Straps: Open the hook and loop straps fully.
  3. Insert Foot: Guide your child's foot into the shoe.

Care

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Kickers Fragma Strap Leather Shoes, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Regular Cleaning: Wipe the smooth leather upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can cause the leather to crack.
  3. Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather soft and supple, preventing drying and cracking. Follow the product instructions for application.
  4. Polishing: For a polished look, use black shoe polish. Apply a small amount with a cloth, let it dry, then buff to a shine.
  5. Strap Maintenance: Keep the hook and loop straps free of lint and debris to ensure they maintain their strong grip.
  6. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
