How do I find the right size?

Measure your child's foot from heel to the tip of the longest toe. Compare this measurement to the New Balance sizing chart for junior trainers, paying close attention to the UK sizing (e.g., size 1.5).

What does the 'Y2K energy' refer to?

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or too loose.

Adjust the laces to achieve a snug but comfortable fit. Ensure the correct size was purchased by measuring the child's foot, comparing it to the size chart, and considering the specific UK sizing (e.g., 1.5).

Difficulty cleaning stubborn marks.

Use a specialized shoe cleaner suitable for synthetic materials, following the product's instructions. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces are worn or frayed.

Replace the laces with a new pair of similar length and thickness. Standard shoelaces can be used.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure the correct size is selected for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: These junior trainers are compatible with a wide range of children's activewear and casual clothing. They are designed for typical children's foot anatomy.

Care: To maintain the trainers' appearance and longevity:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the upper with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap and water solution, applying gently with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent moisture buildup and maintain their shape.
