FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for general active play and everyday wear, offering good cushioning and support. For specialized sports, specific athletic footwear might be more appropriate.
How do I ensure I pick the right size?
It is recommended to measure your child's foot from heel to toe and compare it with the New Balance sizing chart. Checking the UK size against the foot length is crucial.
Can these trainers be washed in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and structure of the shoe. Hand wash with mild soap and water, and air dry.
What is the main benefit of the ABZORB and SBS cushioning?
ABZORB and SBS cushioning provides excellent shock absorption, reducing the impact on your child's feet and joints during activities like running and jumping, and offers a responsive feel.
How should I care for the suede material?
Suede requires gentle care. Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and a suede eraser for minor marks. Avoid water saturation; if wet, stuff with paper and air dry.
What does 'inspired by 2000s running culture' mean for the shoe?
It means the shoe incorporates design elements and performance technologies that were popular and effective in running shoes from that era, offering a blend of retro style and contemporary comfort.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size and checked the foot measurement. Loosen the laces and try again. If still uncomfortable, consider an exchange for a different size.
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser may be effective. Always test cleaning methods on an inconspicuous area first.
Traction seems reduced
Clean the outsole using a damp cloth to remove any embedded dirt or debris that may be affecting grip.
