FAQs
How should I clean these New Balance sneakers?
These sneakers are made of leather and suede. For leather, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For suede, use a specialized suede brush and cleaner. Avoid machine washing or submerging them in water to prevent damage.
Are these sneakers suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, with advanced cushioning technology and durable construction, these sneakers are designed for exceptional all-day comfort and support, making them perfect for active children.
What age group are these sneakers for?
These sneakers are specifically designed for kids, indicated by their 'kids' age group attribute and 'Size: 1 UK' sizing.
Can my child wear these sneakers for sports?
While durable and offering good grip, they are best suited for light sports and active play rather than intense competitive sports. Their primary design focus is on daily activities and comfort.
Are the sneakers waterproof?
The leather construction offers some natural resistance to light moisture, but these sneakers are not fully waterproof. We recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.
How do I ensure the correct fit for my child?
Measure your child's foot and refer to New Balance's official sizing chart. There should be about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe for optimal comfort and growth.
Troubleshooting
Shoes appear dirty or scuffed after play.
Gently wipe leather areas with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For suede inserts, use a specialized suede brush to lift dirt and restore the nap. For stubborn scuffs on leather, a small amount of leather conditioner can help.
Laces frequently come untied during wear.
Ensure the laces are tied securely with a double knot. If the original laces are too slippery or short, consider replacing them with new, more robust laces designed for active footwear.
The sneakers feel less comfortable over time.
Check the interior for any debris or bunched-up socks. Ensure the child is wearing appropriate socks. If comfort issues persist, consider replacing the insoles with new, supportive ones, as factory insoles can wear down with heavy use.

Care Instructions
These sneakers are made from 100% leather with suede inserts. Proper care will extend their lifespan and maintain their appearance.
- Initial Protection (Optional): Consider applying a leather/suede protector spray before first wear to guard against water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: After use, gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (a dedicated suede brush for suede areas). For leather, wipe down with a soft, damp cloth.
- Stain Removal: For tougher stains on leather, use a mild leather cleaner. For suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: If wet, allow the sneakers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather and suede.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Stuffing with paper can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Submerging: Do not machine wash or submerge the sneakers in water, as this can damage the materials and construction.
