FAQs
What age group are these trainers for?

What materials are these trainers made from?

How do I clean the suede parts?

Troubleshooting
Trainers appear dirty quickly
The white color and suede elements can show dirt. Regular light cleaning with a soft brush or damp cloth for the main body, and a suede brush for overlays, will help maintain their appearance. Consider applying a suede protector spray for added resistance to stains.
Child complains of discomfort or rubbing
Ensure the laces are tied correctly – not too tight, not too loose. Check that the child is wearing appropriate socks. Sometimes, new shoes need a short 'break-in' period. If discomfort persists, verify the size is still appropriate for your child's growing feet.
Soles seem slippery
While the sturdy rubber sole provides good grip, excessive wear can diminish traction. Inspect the sole for wear patterns. Ensure the sole is clean of any mud, debris, or oil that might reduce grip. On exceptionally smooth or wet surfaces, extra caution is always advised.

Care
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your New Balance 550 trainers, especially the suede elements:
- General Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap and water to gently clean the man-made upper and rubber sole. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Suede Care: For the green suede overlays, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a suede cleaner specifically designed for footwear is recommended. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can damage materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material degradation.
