New Balance Trainers - Kids - Grey - UK 5.5

These trainers are designed for general active wear and play, offering good cushioning and support. For highly specialized athletic training, specific sports shoes might be more appropriate.

The upper is made from a combination of leather and textile. The sole is synthetic.

For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt and a suede eraser for stains. Avoid using water directly on suede unless using a dedicated suede cleaner, and always allow to air dry.

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe, particularly the cushioning and adhesives.

ABZORB and SBS cushioning provide enhanced shock absorption and a responsive feel, reducing impact on the feet and joints during activity.

The N-ergy outsole is designed to provide durable traction and stability on a variety of surfaces, helping to prevent slips.

While this guide focuses on the grey variant, New Balance often releases popular models like the 2002 series in various colors. Please check product listings for current availability.

Adjust the laces for a snug but comfortable fit. Ensure the correct size was selected based on child's foot measurements.

Check the outsole for embedded debris. Clean the soles with a brush. The N-ergy outsole is designed for grip, but performance can be affected by excessive wear or dirt.

Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, use a specialized fabric cleaner for kids' shoes, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
