FAQs
What are the primary materials used in these trainers?
The uppers are made from a blend of 63% other materials (likely synthetic) and 37% textile. The lining is 100% textile, and the sole is composed of 77% EVA and 23% rubber.
Are these trainers suitable for sports activities?
These trainers are designed for comfort and style during everyday casual wear. They are not specifically engineered for high-impact sports or specialized athletic activities.
How should I clean the vibrant purple color to prevent fading?
To maintain the color, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Always allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat and sunlight.
What does 'touch 'n' close fastening' mean?
This refers to a hook-and-loop closure system, commonly known as Velcro, which allows for easy fastening and adjustment by pressing the two surfaces together.
Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?
While the materials offer some resistance, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles.
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
Refer to the size guide provided by New Balance, considering your child's foot measurement in centimeters or inches. The specified UK size is 12.5.
Troubleshooting
Touch 'n' close strap losing stickiness
Gently clean the hook and loop surfaces with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove lint and debris that may be affecting adhesion. Ensure they are completely dry before use.
Slight discoloration or scuff marks
For minor scuffs on synthetic parts, try using a magic eraser gently. For textile areas, spot clean with a mild detergent and water. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
Inner lining feels damp after wear
Ensure feet are dry before wearing. If shoes become wet, remove them and allow them to air dry completely away from heat. Consider using moisture-wicking socks.
