FAQ
-
What sizes are available in the Back to School collection?
Skechers and Geox school shoes run from infant to junior sizes, with mens and womens sizing for older children and young adults in sixth form or college. Because fit varies by brand, check each product's size guide before ordering.
-
Are the school shoes suitable for wet weather?
Several Geox and Skechers styles include waterproof or water-resistant uppers for autumn and winter terms. Although not every style is waterproof, product pages list the exact rating.
-
How do I clean school shoes and backpacks?
Leather uppers from Geox and Hush Puppies wipe clean with a damp cloth, while synthetic styles are easier to sponge down after muddy playgrounds. Because school shoes see daily wear, regular cleaning helps them last the full term.
-
Which shoes are best for after-school sports and clubs?
Skechers trainers with lace up or touch-fastening closures suit PE lessons and clubs, while school shoes are better kept for classroom wear. Since the two serve different purposes, most parents order both.
-
Do backpacks and rucksacks come in different sizes?
Herschel backpacks range from smaller rucksacks for younger children to larger sizes for secondary kit. When ordering, checking the litre capacity helps match the bag to books and PE kit.
