FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, it is recommended to spot clean them with a damp cloth. Machine washing can damage the adhesive and the structure of the Cloudfoam midsole.

Are these sneakers true to size?

Yes, the Runfalcon 5 J model is designed to fit true to size. We recommend selecting your child's standard UK size.

Can these be used for sports like football?

While durable, these are designed as general-purpose trainers. For competitive football, a shoe with molded studs or specific turf outsoles would be more appropriate.

What is the Cloudfoam midsole made of?

Cloudfoam is a proprietary EVA-based foam developed by adidas to provide superior step-in comfort and cushioning.

Is the material waterproof?

No, the textile upper is designed for breathability, meaning it is not waterproof and may absorb water if exposed to heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming untied frequently

Double-knot the laces or swap them for higher-friction athletic laces if the child is particularly active.

Visible dirt on the light-coloured upper

Use a specialized fabric foam cleaner or a mixture of baking soda and water to spot-treat stains without soaking the material.

Foot discomfort or tightness

Ensure the laces are loosened entirely before putting the shoe on, and verify that the child is wearing the correct size with a thumb's width of space at the toes.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and breathable design for long-wear comfort
  • Responsive cushioning helps reduce impact during play
  • Secure lace-up fit for active movement
  • Sustainable construction using recycled content

Cons

  • Not intended for specialized sports like high-intensity field hockey or football
  • Textile upper may require more frequent cleaning than leather options
  • Lace-up design may be slower for younger children to put on compared to velcro

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best performance from your Runfalcon 5 J trainers, ensure they are laced tightly enough to prevent heel slippage without cutting off circulation. Since these are true to size, standard cotton or athletic socks are recommended for the best fit.

Care Instructions:

  1. Remove loose dirt or mud with a soft-bristled brush after outdoor use.
  2. For deeper cleaning, spot clean the textile upper with a damp cloth and mild, soap-free detergent.
  3. Never submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the foam cushioning.
  4. Always air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can warp the materials.
