Troubleshooting

Adjust the bungee lace system. For a tighter fit, pull the laces firmer. For a looser fit, loosen the laces. Ensure the excess lace is tucked securely.

Dirt or scuffs on the trainers

Wipe with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The bungee lace system is designed for easy slip-on and adjustment. Simply pull the laces to tighten the fit and loosen to remove the shoe. Ensure the laces are snug but not overly tight to avoid discomfort.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general everyday wear and are compatible with casual children's clothing.

Care: To clean the New Balance 1000 trainers, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and grime. For more stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be applied with a soft brush, followed by a wipe-down with a clean, damp cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat sources. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials and construction.
