FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for school use?

Yes, the black colorway and durable design make them an ideal, discreet choice for most school uniform policies.

How do I determine the right size?

It is recommended to have your child's feet measured at a shoe store as sizes can vary slightly between brands.

Are these trainers waterproof?

While the leather construction is water-resistant against light splashes, they are not fully waterproof and should be kept out of heavy rain or deep puddles.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the leather material; always clean them by hand.

Are the insoles removable?

Most BB80 models come with a standard insole, but if you need to use orthotics, they can usually be swapped out for your specific inserts.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

Double-knot the laces or swap for elastic no-tie laces for younger children.

Visible scuffs on the leather

Use a leather cleaner or a color-matched shoe cream to buff out minor surface scuffs.

Uncomfortable pressure points

Ensure the laces are not over-tightened and consider wearing slightly thicker cotton socks to provide extra cushioning.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your New Balance BB80 trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Sizing: Always measure the child's foot using a standard gauge to ensure the UK 4.5 or appropriate size fits with a thumb's width of space at the toe.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe down the leather exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents.
  3. Drying: If the shoes get wet, air-dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking or warping.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain the shape of the upper.
