FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These are lifestyle trainers with runner-inspired support; they are perfect for general play and light physical activity but not for long-distance training.
How do I clean the white portions of the shoe?
Spot clean using a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid total submersion in water or machine washing.
Is the footbed removable?
The footbed is designed for integrated comfort; we recommend leaving it in place to maintain the intended support structure.
What is the best way to store the trainers?
Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the color vibrancy and material integrity.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The lace-up design allows for some adjustability, though the 408v1 is built on a standard fit profile.
Troubleshooting
Laces constantly coming untied
Ensure a secure double-knot is used, or consider replacing them with elasticated no-tie laces for younger users.
Surface stains on white fabric
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning foam or a soft brush with mild soapy water, dabbing gently rather than scrubbing aggressively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last as long as possible, follow these care instructions. When setting up the shoes for the first time, loosen the laces completely and ensure your child is wearing the appropriate socks for their activity. For cleaning, avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can degrade the foam cushioning and upper materials. Instead, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and use mild soap for persistent stains. Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from warping or becoming brittle.
