Troubleshooting
Sizing seems incorrect
Always refer to the New Balance sizing chart and measure your child's foot accurately before purchasing. Different models can have slight variations.
Leather appears scuffed or dirty
Gently clean with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Condition the leather periodically to maintain suppleness.
Laces are difficult to tie or come undone
Ensure laces are threaded correctly and tied using a secure knot. Consider replacing laces with a different material or length if they are problematic.
