Product Information

Full details

These New Balance Fresh Foam 625 trainers are designed for infants taking their first steps, offering superior cushioning and an easy on/off design for parents. The key benefit is the ultra-comfortable Fresh Foam midsole and secure, adjustable closure system that supports little feet during crucial developmental stages. A potential caveat is that while they feature a lace-up look, they do not require actual lacing, which might be a minor adjustment for those expecting traditional laces. Key features include a breathable mesh upper, seamless overlays, and a durable rubber outsole for traction.

FAQs

What makes the Fresh Foam midsole special?

The Fresh Foam midsole is engineered for a premium, lightweight, and soft feel, providing exceptional cushioning that is ideal for developing feet and supporting first-time walkers.

How does the NEW-B closure work?

The NEW-B closure system features hidden Velcro and stretch laces, allowing for an easy slip-on design with adjustable security to fit your child's foot comfortably and snugly.

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, these trainers are not machine washable. Hand cleaning with mild soap and water is recommended, followed by air drying.

What is the intended age group for these shoes?

These shoes are specifically designed for infants and toddlers who are beginning to walk, offering the support and cushioning needed during this developmental stage.

Do the stretch laces require tying?

No, the stretch laces provide a secure, locked-in feel and the look of traditional laces without the need for actual tying, making them convenient for parents and children.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Gently wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoe. Allow it to air dry completely.

Troubleshooting

Shoes are difficult to put on

Ensure the NEW-B closure is fully opened and the tongue is lifted. Gently guide the child's foot into the shoe, then secure the closure.

Child seems uncomfortable

Check if the NEW-B closure is too tight or too loose. Ensure the shoe size is correct for your child's foot measurement. Examine for any internal seams or rough spots that might cause irritation.

Traction seems insufficient

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from excessive dirt or debris. For indoor use, ensure flooring surfaces are not unusually slippery. These shoes are designed for general traction, not extreme conditions.
