FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the structural integrity and adhesives. Spot cleaning is the best practice.

Is the sole non-marking?

Yes, the rubber outsole is designed for general use and typically performs well as a non-marking surface on indoor floors.

Does this shoe come in different widths?

The NB FLASH series is generally offered in a standard width that fits the majority of foot shapes well.

Can I replace the insoles with orthotics?

The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if necessary.

How do I know the correct UK size?

Use a standard foot measuring device or trace your child's foot on paper to measure the length in millimeters, comparing it against a New Balance size chart.

Are these suitable for wet weather?

They are designed for general leisure wear; they provide decent protection but are not waterproof.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

Double-knot the laces or swap them for higher-friction athletic laces.

Scuff marks on the exterior

Use a specialized rubber eraser for footwear to gently buff away surface marks on the synthetic material.

Odour buildup after extended use

Remove the insoles to let them air out overnight and sprinkle a small amount of antimicrobial shoe powder inside.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the right fit is crucial for the longevity of the NB FLASH trainers. When fitting your child, ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between the end of the toes and the front of the shoe to allow for natural growth. For care, keep the shoes away from heavy mud and moisture; if they become dirty, wipe the upper surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes in water, as this can affect the materials and structural integrity. Air dry the shoes naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from cracking or warping.
