How should I clean my New Balance 480 trainers?
For general cleaning, wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap. Use a soft brush for tougher dirt. Always air dry them away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

Troubleshooting
Trainers feel uncomfortable or too tight/loose.
Ensure the correct UK size 3 was chosen. Check lacing; try adjusting tightness for a more secure or relaxed fit. Allow a short 'break-in' period for the materials to conform to the foot.
Shoes get dirty quickly and lose their sleek look.
Regularly wipe down the trainers with a damp cloth after wear. For tougher dirt, use a soft brush and mild soap as per care instructions. Consistent cleaning prevents dirt buildup.
Soles show signs of premature wear or loss of grip.
While built for durability, excessive friction on abrasive surfaces can accelerate wear. Inspect the activity level and surfaces your child primarily uses. Ensure proper cleaning to prevent dirt accumulation on treads, which can reduce grip. If wear is significant, consider if they are being used for activities beyond light sports and daily wear.
Odor develops in the trainers.
Ensure your child wears socks. Allow trainers to air out after each use, especially if they become damp. Removable insoles can be taken out and aired separately or replaced if the odor persists. Sprinkle baking soda inside overnight to absorb odors.

Care Instructions
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your New Balance 480 trainers:
- Cleaning: For general dirt and grime, wipe the surface with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Stubborn Dirt: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) to gently scrub away dried mud or tougher spots.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators), which can damage materials.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent mildew or material degradation.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can severely damage the shoe's construction and materials.
