How can these trainers be easy to put on while also being a great fit?
Because kids live at 100 mph, the Playful Easy are slip-ons. You can put them on and take them off hands-free! The high sole at the back lets you take your shoe off using your other foot. The elasticated mesh – or knit – upper hugs the foot and feels like you're wearing a sock. The elasticated laces, PU upper and fleecy patch at the heel help to keep the shoe securely in place.
Okay, so they're comfortable. But do the Playful Easy help my child's feet grow naturally?
Yep, it's the top priority for our kids' shoes designers. Little ones have very specific needs that must be met so they can grow without getting injured. 11 kids healthcare experts (physiotherapist, chiropodist, osteopaths) helped us to get just the right level of flexion, torsion and cushioning in these trainers. They've also been tried and tested over a long period by numerous young users.
Versatile shoes for your child's daily activities
From the park to the playground, garden and sports hall, your child gets active in numerous different places. And their shoes need to be suitable wherever they are. The Playful Easy are light, comfortable, and resistant to wear and tear. The PU sides help to hold the foot in place, while the reinforced part at the front is perfect for kicking balls. The EVA sole is supple and has rubber pads for extra cushioning, without marking the floor.
What sizes are the Playful Easy available in?
These shoes are available from child size 10 to adult size 6.
To make sure you're buying the right size, use a foot gauge to measure your child's foot.
You can also get them to try on the trainers. Check whether their toes are touching the end of the shoe by getting them to stand upright and look straight ahead. And just for fun, ask them to see how fast they can run in their shoes. Spoiler alert: the answer will be “very”.
How to make your shoes last
Regularly remove the insole to air it out, particularly after an active day. If your trainers get wet, they will air dry very quickly.
