FAQs
How do I clean the New Balance 323 sneakers?
For synthetic and nylon parts, use a damp cloth with mild soap. For suede sections, use a suede brush or eraser. Always air dry them away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.
Are these sneakers suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, with their comfortable flared midsole and durable construction, the New Balance 323 sneakers are designed for all-day wear and active play for children.
What age group are these shoes designed for?
These sneakers are specifically designed and sized for kids, making them suitable for toddlers and young children within the specified UK child sizing range.
Do New Balance 323 sneakers run true to size?
New Balance generally aims for true-to-size fit. However, for children's shoes, it's always recommended to measure your child's foot and refer to a size guide, or ideally, try them on for the best fit, as individual foot shapes can vary.
Can my child wear these for sports activities?
While durable and comfortable for general active play, these sneakers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday activities rather than specialized sports that require specific performance footwear like basketball shoes or running spikes.
What is the material composition of the upper?
The upper features a blend of synthetic materials, suede, and nylon, offering a combination of texture, durability, and breathability for your child's comfort.
Are these shoes available in other colors or sizes?
The New Balance 323 series is often available in various colors and children's sizes. Please check the product listings for other available options, as this particular model is in Pink and a 6 UK Child size.
Troubleshooting
My child says the shoes feel too tight or loose.
Check the fit. Ensure there's about a thumb's width between your child's longest toe and the end of the shoe. If using laces, adjust them to be snug but comfortable. If discomfort persists, it may indicate an incorrect size; consider having your child's foot re-measured.
The shoes look dirty quickly after play.
Regularly clean the shoes after wear using the recommended care instructions for synthetic, suede, and nylon materials. For persistent dirt on the soles, a soft brush can help dislodge grime. Prompt cleaning helps prevent dirt from setting in.
The shoes seem to cause blisters or discomfort.
Ensure your child is wearing appropriate socks that fit well and are made of breathable material. Check for any loose threads or irregularities inside the shoe that might cause rubbing. A short break-in period might be needed for new shoes, but persistent discomfort suggests a sizing or fit issue that should be addressed.
The suede parts are looking worn or scuffed.
Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and remove light scuffs. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Consider using a suede protector spray before initial wear to help repel water and stains.

Care
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of the sneakers:
- General Cleaning: For synthetic and nylon areas, gently wipe with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Suede Areas: Use a specialized suede brush or suede eraser to remove dirt and scuffs. Gently brush in one direction to lift dirt. Avoid excessive water on suede.
- Drying: After cleaning, always air dry the sneakers away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can damage materials. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Stains: Address stains promptly. For specific stain types, research appropriate cleaning methods for synthetic, suede, and nylon materials.
- Storage: Store sneakers in a cool, dry place when not in use.
