FAQs

Are these Kickers suitable for school uniforms?

Yes, the Kickers Kick Hi Core Shoes in black leather are a classic design and are generally well-suited for most school uniform requirements, providing a smart and durable option.

How do I clean the black leather to keep it looking new?

Regularly wipe the shoes with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning and to maintain the leather's condition, use a dedicated leather cleaner and apply a black shoe polish followed by a leather conditioner.

Do these shoes need to be broken in?

Yes, like most new leather boots, the Kick Hi Core Shoes may feel stiff initially. We recommend wearing them for short periods at first to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot for optimal comfort.

What material is the sole made from, and is it non-slip?

The shoes feature a chunky, durable sole. While specific material details are not provided, Kickers soles are known for their robustness and good traction, making them reliable on various surfaces.

What is the small leather floret on the laces?

The small leather floret attached to the laces is an iconic and traditional detail unique to Kickers footwear, signifying authenticity and contributing to the brand's heritage look.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dull or scuffed.

Clean the leather with a damp cloth, then apply a suitable leather conditioner followed by black shoe polish. Buff gently with a soft cloth to restore shine and cover minor abrasions.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable.

This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. Consider wearing thicker socks during the break-in period. If discomfort persists, check sizing or consult a shoe specialist.

Laces fraying or breaking.

Remove the old laces and replace them with new, durable boot laces of appropriate length and thickness. Ensure metal eyelets are smooth and free from burrs that could cause friction.

Squeaking sound when walking.

Often caused by friction between parts of the shoe or between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside, and then reinserting the insole. If it's the sole, a small amount of petroleum jelly on the sole seams can sometimes help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Lacing: Upon receiving, ensure laces are threaded through all metal eyelets. Start from the bottom eyelets and criss-cross upwards, ensuring a snug but comfortable fit. Double-knot for security.
  2. Initial Wear: Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to soften and mold to the foot.

  • School Uniforms: The black leather and classic design make them highly compatible with most school uniform policies.
  • Casual Wear: Easily pairs with jeans, trousers, or skirts for everyday casual outfits.
  • Seasonality: Suitable for all seasons, offering good protection in cooler weather.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe down the leather regularly with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner.
  2. Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few weeks or months to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Follow the product instructions for application.
  3. Polishing: Use black shoe polish to restore shine and cover minor scuffs. Apply with a soft cloth and buff to a sheen.
  4. Sole Care: Clean the chunky sole with a stiff brush and water to remove caked-on mud or debris.
  5. Drying: If wet, allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the leather.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
