The Clarks Hopper Go Floral Plimsolls are engineered for the dynamic lives of children. The flexible TR outsole is a standout feature, allowing the shoes to bend and move seamlessly with every jump, run, and skip, providing excellent ground feel and reducing restriction during play. The padded topline prevents rubbing, crucial for comfort during extended wear at school or in the playground. Parents will appreciate the riptape fastening, which not only helps children develop independence by easily putting on and taking off their own shoes but also guarantees a snug fit that stays secure throughout the day, whether they're in class or on the climbing frame.
The durable black canvas upper can handle the scuffs and scrapes of daily adventures, while the machine washable design offers a significant advantage. Instead of spot cleaning, parents can simply toss them in the wash to restore their fresh appearance, ensuring hygiene and extending the shoe's life. The floral detailing carried through to the sock adds a touch of charm, making these shoes a favorite for children who enjoy a bit of pattern on their footwear. These plimsolls are a practical and stylish choice for everyday wear, balancing active performance with easy care.

One of the key benefits of the Hopper Go plimsolls is their ease of care:
Machine Washable: For best results, wash on a cold, gentle cycle using a mild detergent.
Air Dry: Do not tumble dry. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, to maintain their shape and material integrity.
Stubborn Stains: For any tough spots before washing, gently scrub with a soft brush and mild soap. Ensure all soap residue is rinsed before machine washing.
Regular Cleaning: Regular washing will help maintain the shoe's appearance and hygiene, especially for active children.
