FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

These shoes are designed with a durable faux leather upper that offers some resistance to light moisture, but they are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, we recommend additional protection.

How do I determine the correct size for my child?

We recommend measuring your child's foot and comparing it to a standard UK shoe size chart. For best results, measure both feet and choose the size that accommodates the larger foot.

Can these shoes be worn for sports activities?

These shoes are specifically designed for daily school wear and general comfort. They are not intended for sports activities, which typically require specialized athletic footwear with different support and cushioning.

What is 'faux leather'?

Faux leather is an artificial material designed to look and feel like real leather. It is made from synthetic materials, making these shoes a vegan-friendly option.

Do these shoes offer good arch support?

The Kickers Tovni Lacer Vegan School Shoes feature a flat heel and a standard insole designed for general comfort. If your child requires specific arch support, we recommend consulting with a professional and considering custom insoles.

How long do these shoes typically last?

The lifespan of the shoes depends on the intensity of wear and care. With their durable faux leather upper and rubber sole, they are built to withstand the rigors of daily school use for a typical school term, provided proper care is maintained.

Troubleshooting

Laces frequently come undone.

Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot. You can also try re-lacing the shoes to ensure even tension across the eyelets.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable at first.

New shoes often need a 'breaking in' period. Encourage the user to wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time. Thick socks can also help during this phase.

Faux leather looks dull or scuffed.

Clean the faux leather with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For minor scuffs, a specialized faux leather cleaner or conditioner can sometimes help restore the finish. Avoid abrasive materials.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Vegan-Friendly: Made without animal products, appealing to ethical considerations.
  • Durable Construction: Faux leather upper and rubber sole are built to withstand daily school use.
  • Comfort-Focused: Textile lining and flexible rubber sole provide comfort for long hours.
  • Adjustable Fit: Lace-up design ensures a secure and customizable fit.
  • Breathable: Textile lining helps keep feet comfortable and reduces stuffiness.
  • School Compliant: Classic black design and robust build are ideal for school uniform policies.

Cons

  • Specific Use: Primarily designed for school wear, potentially less versatile for casual or athletic activities.
  • Faux Leather Care: May require specific cleaning routines compared to natural leather.
  • Flat Heel: While standard for school shoes, some users might prefer more arch support or a different heel type.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Lacing: Before wearing, ensure the laces are properly threaded through all eyelets. To put on, loosen the laces sufficiently, slide the foot in, then tighten the laces firmly but comfortably.
  2. Adjusting: Adjust the tightness of the laces to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit around the foot. Double-knotting the laces can help prevent them from coming undone during activity.

Compatibility:

  • Age Group: These shoes are designed for kids (UK sizes). Always check the specific size to ensure a proper fit.
  • Gender: Designed as a unisex shoe, suitable for both boys and girls.
  • Uniforms: The black color and classic design make them highly compatible with most school uniform policies.
  • Vegan: The faux leather material makes them suitable for those seeking vegan footwear options.

Care:

  • Cleaning Faux Leather: For general cleaning, wipe the faux leather upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used, then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Sole Care: Wipe the rubber soles clean with a damp cloth as needed to maintain grip.
  • Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
