Quick Fit Tips
Tip 01
Elephant Lacing
This lacing trick, also known as “Runner’s Lock,” helps maintain lace tension and offers a more secure heel fit. Lace up until the last eyelet. Instead of crossing laces, lace through on each side and leave a loop or elephant ear. Then cross laces by lacing through the loops, pull tightly, and then tie.

Tip 02
Thumb Test
Check for fit with your thumb, preferably late in the day. Press your thumb sideways at the tip of the shoe—it should fit half a thumbnail to a full thumbnail of distance (approximately 1cm in length). They should be able to wiggle their toes around without touching the end of the shoe.

Heel Test
Check the heels to make sure the shoe isn't slipping off and fits smoothly around the heel. If feet are sliding up and out, the shoes are too big.

Tip 04
Comfort Check
Have your child stand upright and move around so they can feel if the shoes fit comfortably. Shoes should not be pinching or rubbing anywhere.

FAQs
How do I check the running shoe has the right fit?
  • Try on both shoes, stand up and check:
    Heel: feels secure and doesn’t slip.
    Midfoot: feels comfortable and flexible but locked in.
    Toes: there’s space for the toes to wiggle and to spread out during motion (approximately 1 centimetre).
  • Next, check the fit while moving:
    Move up and down on the spot.
How often should I replace kids’ running shoes?
In general, running shoes should be replaced every 500-800 kilometres of wear, as the cushioning and support mechanisms break down over time. For growing kids, shoes should be replaced more often, as their feet can grow about half a size in three to four months. Once the fit gets tight, it’s time to move up a size.
What shoes should I try if my kid’s almost in adult sizes?
Pegasus and Revolution extend into adult sizing. So they can keep wearing those favourites as they grow, with the same benefits and comfort — just tuned to the needs of a growing runner.
