PRODUCT, SIZING & CARE

Our website has features to help you order with confidence.

SIZE SELECTION
Most footwear on the Sports Direct Australia & New Zealand website is displayed and sold in US sizing. The style name will indicate if it is a Men's, Women's or Kid's style.

If there is no indication on the listing of the size conversion, it is likely UK. You are welcome to reach out to Our Team for any questions. 

NEW ZEALAND FOOTWEAR SIZING
Is the same as US sizing.

TRY THEM ON
The best way to confirm fit is by trying them on. Remembering that a properly fitting shoe should feel snug at the heel and midfoot, with wiggle room around the toes.

Our size guides are kept updated on our website.

SIZE GUIDES
Our website features a comprehensive library of size guides.

Additionally, each product listing has a detailed size guide, which can be found next to the size selector. 

With the right approach and a bit of care, you can ensure a comfortable fit and lasting wear.

FINDING THE PERFECT FIT
Before diving into breaking in your new shoes, ensure you've got the right fit. A properly fitting shoe should feel snug at the heel and midfoot, with wiggle room around the toes.

TAKE IT SLOW
Start by wearing your new shoes for short periods, gradually increasing wear time. Wear them around the house initially, so you can easily take them off if discomfort arises.

For leather styles, wearing thick socks offers added cushioning and aids in accelerating the softening process. You might also want to consider a leather conditioner, which not only softens the leather but also provides a protective coating.

TIGHTEN UP THOSE LACES
While it may seem counterintuitive, tightening your laces can speed up the break-in process by stretching the upper. Keep your laces snug to encourage the shoe to mold to your foot and prevent rubbing.

SILENCE THE SQUEAK
Squeaky shoes are often due to moisture or friction. To fix this, use baby or talcum powder. Remove the inner sole, sprinkle powder inside, and let it sit overnight to absorb moisture. Shake out excess powder the next day.

KEEP UP THE CARE
We recommend using a sneaker protector to form a barrier against dirt and stains, making cleaning easier. For cleaning, promptly remove excess dirt or moisture to prevent long-term damage, always use cleaning products specifically designed for sneakers, and avoid washing them in the machine, as this can damage fastenings and glue.

OWNED BRANDS
Across our operations, Accent Group owned brands continue to utilise a bespoke onboarding process for new suppliers and manufacturing facilities. Our onboarding process requires a formal and staged approval process that includes an assessment of the suppliers’ suitability to manufacture or supply products to Accent Group. Once an assessment is completed to our satisfaction, the relevant General Manager must approve the onboarding request before moving forward.

Prior to onboarding, suppliers must sign and return a copy of the Accent Group Ethical Sourcing Policy and demonstrate that an independent, valid social compliance audit has been completed. Once received, the social compliance audit is assessed internally.

In addition to the Accent Group Ethical Sourcing Policy, we also ensure suppliers receive a copy of our
Manufacturing Agreement, which sets out the terms and expectations which our suppliers must agree to in order to manufacture and supply products to Accent Group.

The Manufacturing Agreement applies to all suppliers of Accent Group owned brands and is expected be signed and returned to us by all such suppliers to Accent Group.

GLOBAL BRAND PARTNERS
We acknowledge our responsibility also exists with our distributed or exclusive brands. Although we do not manufacture this product directly, we work closely with our global brand partners, to ensure their sourcing frameworks align to our expectations.

Accent Group Brand Mangers work with their global counterparts to collate key documentation such as:

• Ethical Sourcing Policy or Statement
• Cotton Sourcing Policy or Statement on Cotton Sourcing
• Animal Welfare Policy
• Restrictive Substances List
• Supplier Code of Conduct
• Carbon Emissions statement
