FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for machine washing?

It is recommended to hand clean these trainers with a damp cloth rather than machine washing to preserve the integrity of the materials.

Is the New Balance 515 good for wide feet?

The 515 series offers a standard fit, but the lace-up design allows for some adjustment in width.

Can these be worn for school sports?

They are suitable for general physical education and play, but they are not categorized as high-performance technical sports shoes.

How often should I clean them?

Wiping them down weekly or after particularly muddy excursions will keep them looking their best and protect the materials.

Do they provide good arch support?

They provide standard support suitable for daily casual wear, appropriate for most children.

What is the best way to dry them if they get wet?

Stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and let them air dry in a well-ventilated area.

Troubleshooting

Outer sole appears slippery

Clean the bottom of the soles with a damp brush to remove accumulated debris or dirt.

Material scuffing

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a soft brush to gently buff out minor scuffs on the upper.

Foot feels too tight

Loosen the laces to allow for more volume, or consider if the child has outgrown the current size.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 515 sneakers last as long as possible, follow these maintenance tips:

  1. Routine Cleaning: Wipe the black upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and dust.
  2. Avoid Immersion: Do not submerge the shoes in water, as this can degrade the internal materials and adhesives.
  3. Air Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the rubber or fabrics to warp.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain the shape and material integrity.
  5. Fit Check: Periodically check the fit as children grow quickly; an ill-fitting shoe can affect comfort and movement.
