The super-lightweight TPR sole allows for effortless movement, whether running in the playground or walking to class, minimizing fatigue.

The moulded rubber heel piece is a key feature for durability, protecting against the scuffs and scrapes common with energetic kids.

Getting the Feather Shine Kid shoes ready is simple:
Open Straps: Fully open both double riptape straps on each shoe.
Insert Foot: Use the heel and tongue loops to pull the shoe open and guide your child's foot in comfortably.
Adjust Fit: Ensure the foot is positioned correctly with toes having enough wiggle room.
Secure Straps: Fasten the riptape straps, adjusting them to achieve a snug, secure, but not overly tight fit. The straps should hold the foot firmly without pinching.
These shoes are designed for kids (unisex) and are ideal for:
School wear, adhering to most school uniform policies with their black, practical design.
Everyday casual wear and light sports activities.
Suitable for various foot shapes thanks to the adjustable riptape fastening.
To ensure your Feather Shine Kid shoes remain in excellent condition:
Cleaning: Wipe the perforated black upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and scuffs. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used, then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
Odour Control: The Microban® lining provides active odour control. For ongoing freshness, allow shoes to air out between wears.
Maintenance: Regularly check the riptape straps for debris that might affect adhesion. Clean as needed. Inspect the sole and heel for excessive wear to ensure continued protection and grip.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
