FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?

Yes, the Kickers Tovni Lacer Shoes are specifically designed for daily school use. Their durable construction and smart patent finish make them ideal for school uniforms and active school environments.

How do I clean the patent leather?

Wipe the patent upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. For a deeper clean or to restore shine, use a specialized patent leather cleaner or a very mild soap solution, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth and then drying.

Do these shoes provide good support for children's feet?

Yes, the lacer design allows for a secure and adjustable fit, which provides good support for growing feet. The vulcanised sole also offers cushioning and stability.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper is made from sleek patent leather, giving the shoe a polished and formal appearance.

Are these shoes waterproof?

While the patent leather provides some resistance to light moisture, these shoes are not fully waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or puddles to maintain their condition.

How do I choose the correct size?

These shoes are available in UK children's sizes. It's best to measure your child's foot and compare it to a Kickers sizing chart for the most accurate fit. Always try on both shoes with socks.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs or minor scratches appear on the patent leather.

For light scuffs, try gently rubbing with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, a specialized patent leather repair kit or polish may be needed. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Adjust the lacing. Ensure laces are evenly tightened from the bottom upwards. If the size is incorrect, consider consulting a sizing guide or trying a different size, allowing for appropriate room for growth.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes happen with new shoes or if moisture gets between the insole and the shoe. Try dusting a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole to reduce friction. If persistent, it might be a manufacturing issue.

Laces frequently come untied.

Ensure a double knot is tied firmly. Consider replacing worn laces with new, good-quality ones that have sufficient friction. You can also try different lacing techniques for more security.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with your Kickers Tovni Lacer Shoes is straightforward:

  1. Unpack: Remove the shoes from their packaging.
  2. Lacing: Ensure laces are properly threaded through all eyelets. Adjust tension evenly from the toe upwards for a comfortable fit.
  3. Fitting: Have your child try on both shoes with appropriate socks. Check for a comfortable fit around the toes and heel, ensuring there's enough room for movement without being too loose.
  4. Initial Adjustment: Tighten laces securely, but not too tightly, ensuring the foot is held firmly in place. Double-knot for added security, especially for active children.

Compatibility

  • School Uniforms: These shoes are specifically designed to meet the aesthetic requirements of most school uniform policies, offering a smart, black patent finish.
  • Everyday Wear: While primarily a school shoe, their classic design can also complement smart casual outfits for events or family outings.
  • Age Group: Suitable for junior children, typically aligning with primary and early secondary school ages.

Care

To ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your Kickers Tovni Lacer Shoes:

  • Regular Cleaning: Wipe the patent upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a clean, damp wipe.
  • Shine Maintenance: To maintain the patent shine, occasionally use a patent leather cleaner or conditioner, applied with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  • Sole Care: Regularly check the vulcanised sole for embedded stones or debris and remove them carefully to prevent damage.
