FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?

Yes, the Kickers Fragma Strap shoes are specifically designed for daily school use, offering durability, comfort, and a smart appearance suitable for school uniforms.

How do I clean the leather on these shoes?

To clean, wipe the leather with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning and to maintain the leather's appearance, use a black leather shoe cleaner and polish, then buff to a shine.

Can my child play sports in these shoes?

These shoes are designed for general school wear and light activities. They are not athletic shoes and are not recommended for high-impact sports, as they do not provide the specialized support or cushioning required.

How long do these shoes typically last?

The lifespan of the shoes depends on the child's activity level and care. However, with their durable leather upper and rubber sole, and proper maintenance, they are built to last through a significant portion of the school year.

Are these shoes waterproof?

While the leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, these shoes are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain or wet conditions, consider additional waterproofing sprays designed for leather footwear.

What is the recommended age group for these shoes?

These shoes are part of the 'kids' age group and are specifically designed for boys, making them suitable for primary and early secondary school children.

Troubleshooting

Touch fasten straps are not holding securely.

Check the hook-and-loop fasteners for lint, dirt, or debris. Use a stiff brush or a toothpick to carefully clean out any trapped material. Ensure the straps are aligned properly when fastening.

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure the correct size has been purchased. Allow for a short 'break-in' period as the leather may soften with wear. Check the thickness of socks being worn. If discomfort persists, consult a shoe fitting specialist.

Leather looks dull or scuffed.

Clean the leather thoroughly with a damp cloth. Once dry, apply a good quality black shoe polish and buff with a soft brush or cloth to restore shine and cover minor scuffs.

Slipping on wet surfaces.

Check the rubber sole for wear. If the treads are worn smooth, the grip will be reduced. Ensure the soles are clean from mud or debris that could reduce traction.

Compatibility

  • School Uniforms: The classic black leather and moccasin/apron style make these shoes highly compatible with most school uniform policies.
  • Foot Type: Designed for a regular shoe width. If your child has particularly wide or narrow feet, ensure to check for proper fit.
  • Activities: Best suited for daily school wear and general walking. Not recommended for high-impact sports or extreme outdoor conditions.

Care

To ensure your Kickers Fragma shoes last:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe down the leather upper regularly with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a leather cleaner suitable for black leather.
  2. Polishing: Apply a black shoe polish periodically to maintain the leather's appearance and provide additional protection.
  3. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the leather.
  4. Sole Care: Regularly check the rubber sole for embedded debris and clean the treads to maintain optimal grip.
  5. Strap Maintenance: Keep the touch fasten straps clean from lint and debris to ensure strong adhesion.
