FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for all types of sports?
The New Balance 530 Children Trainers are designed for everyday comfort and light activities like running, jumping, and playground play. While they offer good cushioning and support, they are not specialized performance shoes for specific high-impact sports like basketball or competitive running.
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
We recommend measuring your child's foot length and comparing it to the New Balance size chart. It's also advisable to try the trainers on with the type of socks they would normally wear to ensure a comfortable fit with a small amount of growing room.
Can these trainers be washed in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and structure of the trainers. Please follow the spot cleaning and air drying instructions provided in the 'Care' section to maintain their quality.
Do these trainers provide good arch support?
The New Balance 530 features a spongy foam midsole with ABZORB cushioning, which provides excellent shock absorption and general comfort. While it offers supportive cushioning for everyday wear, specific arch support features are not highlighted.
What is the primary material of these trainers?
The upper is made from a combination of airy textile mesh and synthetic overlays. The sole is made of synthetic materials, primarily tough rubber for the outsole and foam for the midsole.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
While equipped with elastic laces, ensure the overall size is correct. For minor adjustments, gently pull on the elastic laces to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. If discomfort persists, verify the shoe size against your child's current foot measurements.
Trainers get dirty quickly.
Children's trainers are prone to dirt. Regularly spot clean the textile and synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized sneaker cleaner designed for these materials. Consistent cleaning prevents dirt buildup.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped inside the shoe or between the insole and sole. Remove the insole (if removable), clean and dry both the insole and the shoe's interior thoroughly. If the sound persists, it might be an issue with the sole unit, which is rare.

Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your New Balance 530 Children Trainers, follow these care instructions:
- Spot Clean: For light dirt, use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap and cold water to gently clean the textile and synthetic upper. Do not submerge the shoes in water.
- Deep Cleaning: For more stubborn dirt, a sneaker cleaning solution formulated for textile and synthetic materials can be used. Always follow the product's instructions.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers) as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Avoid Bleach/Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or harsh cleaning agents, as these can discolour or damage the materials.
