FAQ’s Plimsolls For Kids
Plimsolls are rubber-soled canvas shoes which are usually worn during the school day or for PE whereas pumps are also canvas, but more like trainers, usually with laces.
Plimsolls with flat soles are better for children’s feet than cushioned trainers because they teach them to run in a more natural manner.
