The Clarks Hopper Run plimsolls are specifically engineered for the demands of school sports and Physical Education (PE) lessons. Their soft canvas upper allows for natural foot movement and breathability, crucial during active sessions. The padded collar provides essential comfort, preventing rubbing and irritation during prolonged wear, which is beneficial during sports activities. The non-marking sole is a key feature for indoor use, ensuring gym floors and school halls remain clean and scuff-free, making them compliant with most school regulations. The protective toe bumper adds a layer of durability, guarding against wear and tear from running, jumping, and general active play. The Velcro fastening system simplifies the process of putting on and taking off the shoes, which is particularly helpful for younger children who are still developing fine motor skills. These plimsolls are designed to provide reliable performance in a dynamic school environment, offering comfort, protection, and ease of care.
Simply open the Velcro fastening, slide your child's foot into the plimsoll, and secure the strap firmly but comfortably. Ensure the foot is well-seated and there's adequate room for toes to wiggle.
