The Clarks Laser Cross K is built to withstand the demands of active school days. Its robust sole and flex grooves provide reliable grip and support, making it ideal for running, playing football, and navigating school playgrounds. The Microban® odour control lining is a standout feature, effectively managing foot freshness throughout the day, which is crucial for energetic kids. The elastic laces and riptape strap empower children to put on and take off their shoes independently, fostering self-reliance and ensuring a consistently snug fit. The padded collar and tongue coupled with the lightweight, impact-absorbing sole mean that comfort is maintained even during prolonged periods of activity. The toe bumper and rubber heel clip offer practical protection against scuffs and impacts, prolonging the shoe's life and protecting growing feet. This shoe truly shines as a versatile daily school shoe that can handle everything from classroom activities to enthusiastic outdoor play.
Getting the Clarks Laser Cross K ready is straightforward:
Adjusting the Fit: Unfasten the riptape strap completely.
Inserting Foot: Guide your child's foot into the shoe, ensuring their heel is comfortably seated at the back.
Securing the Strap: Pull the riptape strap across the top of the foot and fasten it firmly to achieve a snug, yet comfortable fit. The elastic laces are designed to provide flexibility without needing constant re-tying.
Age Group: Designed specifically for kids.
Gender: Unisex design, suitable for both boys and girls.
Sizing: Available in various UK children's sizes (e.g., size 2, 1, 11, 12, 10, 13). Always check the specific size guide for the best fit.
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the fresh feel of the Laser Cross K:
Cleaning the Upper: For the leather and mesh upper, gently wipe dirt and scuffs with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner for the leather parts and a soft brush with mild soap for the mesh sections. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Maintaining Odour Control: Allow shoes to air out regularly after wear. If the odour control seems less effective, ensure the shoes are clean and dry, as the Microban® lining works best in a clean environment.
Sole Care: Regularly check the sole for embedded stones or debris and carefully remove them to maintain optimal grip and prevent damage.
Drying: Always air dry shoes away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight) to prevent damage to materials.
