FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as the water and agitation can damage the suede material and affect the adhesive.
Can these be worn for competitive sports?
While these are very comfortable for daily activity and play, they are classified as lifestyle trainers rather than high-performance specialized sports cleats.
What does the Stability Web feature do?
Stability Web is a technology integrated into the outsole that provides extra arch support and midfoot stability.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The New Balance 2002 series generally follows standard sizing; refer to the provided UK sizing chart to match your child's current foot size.
How do I remove water stains from the suede?
Lightly dampen the entire suede area evenly with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry, then brush it with a suede brush to restore the nap.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the suede surface
Use a specialized suede brush or a clean pencil eraser to gently lift the dirt without damaging the texture.
Shoes feel tight around the ankle
Ensure the laces are adjusted properly and that the padded tongue is centered and not bunched up against the collar.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 2002 trainers stay in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Apply a suede-safe water and stain repellent spray before the first wear to protect against everyday spills.
- Cleaning: For dry dirt, use a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for suede to gently remove debris. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Maintenance: If the shoes get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the material to stiffen or shrink.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the vibrant blue color from fading.
