FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for all types of sports?

These trainers are versatile and suitable for many sports and active play. However, for highly specialized sports requiring specific footwear, consult sport-specific recommendations.

How do I determine the correct size for my child?

Measure your child's foot from heel to the longest toe and compare it with the New Balance sizing chart. Ensure there is a small amount of growing room.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

While the materials offer some resistance, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Avoid deep puddles or heavy rain.

What is the lifespan of these trainers?

The lifespan depends on the frequency and intensity of use. With proper care, they are designed to be durable for active children's daily wear.

How often should I clean the trainers?

Clean the trainers as needed, especially after significant dirt or mud accumulation. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended for maintenance.

What is the primary benefit of the FuelCell technology?

FuelCell technology provides a responsive and energetic underfoot feel, meaning it helps to return energy with each step, making movement feel more dynamic and less tiring.

Troubleshooting

Laces keep coming undone

Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Loosen the laces and re-adjust for a more comfortable fit. Ensure the correct size has been purchased; children's feet grow quickly.

Traction seems reduced on slippery surfaces

Check the sole for embedded debris and clean if necessary. The sole's grip may reduce with significant wear.

Discoloration of fabric

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers come ready to wear. Ensure the correct size is selected for optimal comfort and performance. Adjust the laces to achieve a snug and secure fit, ensuring the foot is well-supported within the shoe.

Compatibility: Suitable for a variety of activities including running, general sports, and casual wear. They are designed for children's feet and are compatible with typical children's socks.

Care: To maintain the trainers' condition:

  1. Remove loose dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth.
  2. For minor stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Wipe gently.

  4. Avoid machine washing or soaking, as this can degrade the adhesives and materials.
