Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and try re-tying them with more space. If the issue persists after break-in, consider a different size or model.
Scuff marks on the white leather
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be used with caution on the midsole or rubber components.
Inconsistent fit after initial wear
Ensure laces are tied evenly. If the fit feels off, verify the size against New Balance's official size chart and compare with the child's current foot measurement.
