The Karrimor Duma 6 Running Shoes excel as a versatile option for active children. They are ideally suited for:
Light Running and Jogging: Perfect for a child's first steps into running, school sports days, or casual jogs in the park.
School Activities: The comfortable fit and durable construction make them excellent for daily wear at school, including playground time and physical education classes.
Everyday Play: Providing ample cushioning and support, these shoes are great for general active play, climbing, and exploring.
To ensure optimal performance, always ensure the hook and loop fastening is adjusted snugly but not overly tight. This helps provide necessary support and prevents the foot from sliding within the shoe, which can lead to discomfort or blisters. Their lightweight nature means less fatigue during extended wear, encouraging more active time.
Sizing: Ensure you have selected the correct UK children's foot size. Have your child try on the shoes with the socks they would typically wear.
Fastening: Loosen the hook and loop strap completely. Guide your child's foot into the shoe, using the heel pull tab if needed. Press the hook and loop strap down to secure the shoe comfortably around the foot, ensuring it's snug but not restrictive.
These shoes are designed for light running activities and general active wear for children. They are compatible with various surfaces typically found in parks, schoolyards, and light trails. They are not intended for specialized sports requiring specific traction or support, such as football or advanced track and field.
Proper care will extend the life of your Karrimor Duma 6 Running Shoes:
Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and grime. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure they are dry before storing to prevent odors or mildew.
Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing is not recommended as it can compromise the shoe's structure, cushioning, and bonding.
