The Karrimor Duma 6 Running Shoes are engineered to support children during their first steps into running and active play. The lightweight Phylon midsole ensures that young feet aren't weighed down, allowing for natural movement and reducing fatigue during prolonged activity, such as playground games or school sports. The combination of an EVA insole and Phylon midsole provides critical cushioning, absorbing impact and protecting growing joints from repetitive stress, which is crucial for comfort and injury prevention in young athletes. The hook-and-loop fastening is a significant benefit, enabling children to easily secure their own shoes, fostering independence and ensuring a snug fit that prevents slipping and improves stability. The seamless knitted upper offers both durability for active use and a comfortable, breathable feel, preventing discomfort from rubbing or overheating. These shoes excel in providing a stable and comfortable platform for everyday running, school physical education classes, and casual outdoor activities, making them a reliable choice for active kids.
Putting On: Slide your child's foot into the shoe, using the heel pull tab to gently guide the foot in.
Securing the Fit: Fasten the hook-and-loop strap firmly over the instep. Ensure it's snug but not too tight to allow for comfortable movement.
Check Comfort: Have your child walk or take a few steps to ensure the fit is comfortable and there are no pressure points.
These Karrimor Duma 6 running shoes are designed for kids (specifically female based on product attributes) and are suitable for a range of sizes, including UK size 11 for this variant. They are ideal for general running, active play, and everyday wear for children.
Cleaning: For general cleaning, wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals. For the sole, a soft brush can help remove dirt and debris.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
Maintenance: Regularly check the hook-and-loop fastening for debris that might reduce its effectiveness. Clean as needed.
