FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for school uniform policies?
Yes, with their classic black leather construction and durable design, the Kickers Tovni Scuff Lo Shoes are typically well-suited for most school uniform policies that require black footwear.
What age group are these shoes for?
These shoes are designed for infants and young children. They are available in a range of UK infant and kids' sizes.
How do I clean the scuff-resistant bumpers?
The scuff-resistant heel and toe bumpers are part of the synthetic sole material. They can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. They are designed to be durable and resistant to marking.
Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
While the leather offers some natural resistance, these shoes are not waterproof. For prolonged exposure to wet conditions, we recommend applying a suitable leather protector spray or choosing waterproof footwear.
Are the insoles removable?
Info needed: Some models may have removable insoles for cleaning or custom orthotics, while others may not. Please check your specific pair for this feature.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Kickers generally aim for a true-to-size fit. However, foot shapes vary. It's always recommended to measure your child's feet and refer to a Kickers size guide if available, or try them on to ensure the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Straps do not stay fastened.
Ensure the hook and loop fasteners are clean and free of debris (lint, thread). Press them firmly together along their entire length for a secure closure. If severely worn, the hook and loop material may need to be replaced.
Shoes appear dull or scuffed (outside bumper areas).
Clean the leather with a damp cloth. Once dry, apply a black leather polish or cream specifically designed for shoes. Buff gently to restore shine and cover minor scuffs.
Child complains of discomfort or rubbing at the ankle.
Check if the shoe size is correct and if socks are being worn. Ensure the straps are not overtightened. The padded ankle collar is designed for comfort, but a break-in period might be needed for new shoes, or the fit may be incorrect.
Shoes making squeaky noise while walking.
Often, this is due to moisture trapped between the insole and outsole. Remove the insole (if removable), clean and dry both the inside of the shoe and the insole thoroughly. If the noise persists, it could be a structural issue, though rare.
Outsole seems slippery.
Ensure the outsole is clean of mud, dirt, or debris. The rubber outsole is designed for grip on most surfaces, but certain very smooth or wet surfaces may still be slippery. Check for excessive wear on the tread pattern; worn outsoles offer less grip.

Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your leather Kickers Tovni Scuff Lo Shoes:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the leather upper regularly with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner suitable for black leather.
- Scuff Repair: For minor scuffs on the leather (outside the bumper areas), a black leather polish or cream can help restore the finish.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight) to prevent leather cracking.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
- Info needed: Waterproofing: These shoes are not inherently waterproof. Consider applying a leather protector spray for added resistance to moisture.
