The Karrimor Duma 6 Running Shoes are engineered to support young runners in their active pursuits. The combination of the lightweight Phylon midsole and EVA insole provides effective cushioning, which is crucial for absorbing impact during running, jumping, and general play. This makes them suitable for school sports, playground activities, or casual jogs.
The seamless knitted upper offers a snug yet flexible fit, reducing irritation during movement. The lace fastening system ensures that the shoes remain securely on the feet, offering confidence during dynamic activities. With rubber pods on the outsole, these shoes deliver reliable traction on common surfaces like pavement, grass, and school tracks, helping to prevent slips.
These shoes are an ideal starting point for children who are beginning to explore running as a hobby or for general everyday active wear where comfort and basic support are paramount. For example, a child participating in a school fun run will benefit from the cushioning and secure fit, while the durable upper will withstand the rigors of daily play.
Lacing: Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets. For a secure fit, tighten the laces evenly from the toe towards the ankle. Finish with a double knot to prevent untying during activity.
Fit Check: Have the child stand up. There should be a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel snug, not slipping.
These shoes are designed for kids within the specified UK children's size range. They are suitable for general running, walking, and active play.
Cleaning: To clean the shoes, gently wipe the seamless knitted upper and outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap (if necessary). Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes which can damage the material.
Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can deform the materials and adhesives.
Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve their shape and material integrity. Stuffing with newspaper can help maintain shape and absorb moisture after wear.
