FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature running-inspired technology, they are designed primarily as lifestyle trainers for daily wear rather than high-intensity competitive athletics.
How do I determine the right size?
These trainers follow standard UK children's sizing; we recommend measuring the foot in the afternoon when it is at its largest and referring to our size guide.
Can I put these in the dryer?
No, heat from a dryer can damage the polyester material and the ABZORB cushioning units. Always allow them to air dry at room temperature.
Is the material waterproof?
The polyester upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to keep the interior dry and the material clean.
Are these unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 2000 series is designed as a unisex product with a color palette suitable for everyone.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty putting on the shoes
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before sliding the foot in to avoid damaging the heel collar.
Build-up of dirt on the midsole
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a soft-bristled brush to gently wipe the ABZORB pods.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the right fit is essential for the New Balance 2000 series; ensure the child is wearing appropriate socks when sizing. To maintain the shoes, avoid machine washing as it can damage the specialized midsole pods. Instead, gently brush off loose dirt with a soft, dry brush. For stubborn spots on the polyester upper, use a damp cloth with mild soap, and always air dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials over time.
