FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for everyday wear and light activities. For specific high-impact sports, dedicated athletic footwear might be more appropriate.
What is ABZORB cushioning?
ABZORB is a New Balance technology designed to provide excellent shock absorption and responsive cushioning in the heel and forefoot.
How do I ensure the correct size for my child?
It's best to measure your child's foot length and compare it with the New Balance size chart. Children's feet can grow quickly, so regular checks are recommended.
Can these trainers be washed in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Hand spot cleaning is the preferred method.
What does 'reissued' mean for this model?
Reissued means that this model is a modern reproduction of an original design from 1999, updated with current materials and manufacturing techniques while retaining the classic aesthetic.
What is the material composition?
The upper is primarily constructed with a standard mesh and synthetic overlay design. The sole unit incorporates rubber for traction.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart and measure your child's foot. If possible, try on a pair in-store to ensure the best fit.
Stains on the mesh or overlays
Gently use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution to clean the affected area. Rinse lightly with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Reduced cushioning over time
While ABZORB is durable, prolonged heavy use can lessen its effectiveness. For consistent comfort, consider replacing shoes after significant wear.
