The Clarks Feather Shine K is built for the dynamic life of a child. Its super-lightweight TPR sole makes it ideal for running, jumping, and all-day wear at school, reducing fatigue. The Microban® odour control lining is crucial for maintaining freshness, even after long days in the classroom and on the playground, addressing a common concern for parents. The moulded rubber heel piece and protective toe-cap provide exceptional durability, guarding against scuffs and impacts during rough and tumble play, making them truly hardwearing. The double riptape straps are a key feature for promoting independence, allowing children to easily put on and take off their shoes by themselves, while also ensuring a secure and adjustable fit for various activities. Reflective details add a layer of safety, increasing visibility for children walking to or from school during darker mornings or evenings. The combination of high-quality leather uppers with the comfort of a trainer ensures these shoes can withstand daily wear while providing ample support and comfort.
Getting started with your Feather Shine K shoes is straightforward:
Loosen Straps: Fully open both double riptape straps.
Insert Foot: Use the heel and tongue loops to guide the foot comfortably into the shoe.
Adjust Fit: Securely fasten the riptape straps. Adjust them until the shoe feels snug but not tight, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit.
Target User: These shoes are specifically designed for children, making them an excellent choice for school and everyday wear.
Foot Type: The "Wide Fit" designation means they are engineered to provide a more generous and comfortable fit for children with wider feet.
Environment: Suitable for various school environments, including classrooms, playgrounds, and sports activities due to their durable and supportive design.
Proper care will extend the life and freshness of your Feather Shine K shoes:
Cleaning: For the leather upper, wipe away dirt and scuffs with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdry, as this can damage the materials.
Odour Control: While Microban® helps, regularly air out the shoes after wear to maintain freshness. Consider removable insoles that can be washed separately if needed.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
Avoid Machine Washing: These shoes are not suitable for machine washing.
