FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for school sports?
Yes, they provide sufficient support and cushioning for general PE activities and playground play.
Can I remove the insoles?
The insoles are generally removable, allowing for the insertion of custom orthotics if necessary.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between the end of the longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Are these machine washable?
No, machine washing can break down the adhesives and damage the cushioning. Stick to spot cleaning.
Do they provide good arch support?
Yes, the Trusstic midfoot support system provides structural integrity that aids in overall arch stability.
What is the primary material used?
The exterior consists of a mix of breathable mesh and durable leather/synthetic overlays.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Teach a double-knot method or replace with elastic no-tie laces for younger children.
Outer surface becoming discoloured
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner for leather and synthetic materials, avoiding harsh bleaches.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are tightened specifically at the midfoot and use the final eyelet for a 'runner's loop' to lock the heel in place.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent arch and midfoot stability
- Effective shock absorption for hard surfaces
- Durable construction with reinforced overlays
- Secure lace-up fit for active use
Cons
- Material may show dirt more easily due to white colour
- Not intended for wet or muddy terrain
- Requires manual lace tying which may be difficult for younger children
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, start by loosening the laces fully to allow the foot to enter comfortably before securing the fit to match the child's foot shape. These shoes are compatible with standard orthotics if extra arch support is required. For care, avoid machine washing as this can damage the structural adhesives. Instead, wipe the leather and synthetic overlays with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from warping or cracking.
