Its lightweight construction ensures children can move freely without feeling weighed down, while the breathable mesh uppers help to maintain foot comfort, reducing sweat and odor during active periods.

These shoes are ideal for children aged approximately 4-8 years, depending on their foot size and development, providing a reliable option for active days.
Unfasten: Begin by fully unfastening the touch 'n' close strap and loosening the laces.
Insert Foot: Slide your child's foot into the shoe, ensuring the heel sits comfortably and firmly against the back of the shoe.
Adjust Laces: Tighten the laces evenly across the top of the foot. They should be snug but not so tight as to cause discomfort or restrict circulation.
Secure Strap: Fasten the touch 'n' close strap firmly over the laces for added stability and to keep the laces secure.
Check Fit: Ensure there is approximately a thumb's width of space between your child's longest toe and the front of the shoe, allowing for growth and toe movement.

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your New Balance 578 trainers, follow these care guidelines:
Cleaning Uppers: For general cleaning, gently wipe the textile (89% textile) and other material (11% other materials) uppers with a damp cloth to remove dirt and surface scuffs. For tougher stains, a small amount of mild soap diluted in water can be used sparingly.
Cleaning Soles: Brush off loose dirt from the rubber sole. A damp cloth can be used to wipe the sole clean.
Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, heaters, or tumble dryers, as these can cause damage to the materials and adhesives.
Maintenance: Regularly check the laces and touch 'n' close strap for signs of wear. Keep the hook-and-loop fasteners of the strap clean of lint and debris to maintain their grip.
Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash the trainers, as this can compromise their structure and materials.
