FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for competitive running?
While adapted from a running shoe design, the Cloudswift trainers for kids are primarily designed for comfort and style in everyday wear and light activities. They may not offer the same level of specialized support and performance features as dedicated youth running shoes.
How do I adjust the elasticated laces?
The elasticated laces are designed for a snug fit. They do not typically require tying. If they feel too loose or too tight, you can try to adjust the tension by ensuring the lacing system is properly seated, or consult the manufacturer's website for any specific adjustment methods.
What is the weight of these trainers?
These trainers weigh approximately 184g, making them very lightweight for children's comfort.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method to preserve the materials and structure of the shoe.
What makes the sole flexible and soft?
The absence of a 'Speedboard®' in this particular adaptation contributes to the shoe's enhanced flexibility and softness, promoting a more natural foot movement.
What age group are these shoes intended for?
These trainers are designed for kids, with specific sizing available, catering to younger children who benefit from the easy slip-on features.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the shoe on
Ensure the elasticated laces are loosened sufficiently. Use the pull tab at the heel to help slide the foot in.
Uneven wear on the sole
Check the child's gait. The rubber inserts at the heel and forefoot are designed for durability, but uneven wear may indicate specific foot mechanics. Ensure the shoe fit is correct.
Discoloration of the upper
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
