FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as the agitation and heat can damage the materials and glue. Hand cleaning is best.
Can these be used for running or track sports?
While durable and comfortable, these are designed as lifestyle trainers. They lack the specific technical features required for competitive athletic performance.
How do I determine the right size for my child?
Measure your child's feet in the afternoon when they are largest, and refer to the UK children's size guide for the most accurate fit.
Are the insoles removable?
Most models in the 520 series feature standard inserts; check your specific pair to see if they can be replaced with custom orthotics.
Do these come in different widths?
The New Balance 520 is generally sold in a standard width. Please check the specific product label if you have concerns regarding foot width.
What is the primary material used in these trainers?
The 520 series typically utilizes a blend of durable synthetic overlays and breathable mesh to balance comfort and longevity.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after a growth spurt
Check the fit regularly; if the toes hit the front, it is time to size up to the next UK size.
Visible scuffs or dirt on the surface
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid machine washing, which can damage structural adhesives.
Laces coming untied frequently
Double-knot the laces or consider replacing them with shorter, high-friction laces if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your New Balance 520 trainers is straightforward. Ensure you have the correct UK child foot size for the best support. To keep them looking fresh, wipe the upper down with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains on synthetic materials, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping. Always ensure the laces are tied securely to prevent tripping and to maintain proper foot alignment.
