FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These trainers are inspired by 2000s running classics and offer excellent comfort, but they are primarily intended for everyday casual wear and light activities.

How do I determine the right size?

The New Balance 2000 Lace is available in standard UK sizing for children. We recommend measuring the foot with socks on to ensure adequate toe room.

Can the insoles be replaced?

Yes, the stock insoles can be removed if you prefer to use custom orthotics or third-party insoles.

Are they machine washable?

We do not recommend machine washing, as the heat and agitation can damage the foam cushioning and the structural integrity of the upper.

What is the primary difference between this and the standard 2000 series?

The 'Lace' variant features a specifically engineered aesthetic that highlights the ABZORB pod technology as a central design element.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

Ensure the laces are threaded properly through all eyelets and use a double knot if necessary to secure the fit.

Feel of internal pods underfoot

The ABZORB pods are designed to be felt. If they cause discomfort, check that you are wearing the correct size and using the original factory-provided insole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-performance shock absorption
  • Stylish, modern 2000s-inspired aesthetic
  • Lightweight minimalist construction
  • Durable build quality for active children

Cons

  • Experimental design may feel unique compared to standard trainers
  • Minimalist upper offers less bulk than traditional support shoes
  • Requires proper sizing for optimal pod alignment

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines. Before wearing, adjust the laces to ensure even tension across the bridge of the foot. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or debris from the outsole and mesh upper. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the ABZORB cushioning properties. If the shoes become wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from warping.
