This specific model of the New Balance 1000 is designed for kids, featuring a bungee lace system for ease of use.
With ABZORB cushioning and a Stability Web midfoot shank, they are suitable for a range of activities including active play, light sports, and everyday casual wear, providing comfort and support.
The bungee lace system provides a stretchy, adaptive fit that allows your child to easily slip the shoes on and off without needing to tie traditional laces. It offers a secure yet flexible fit.
The upper of this specific variant is made from polyester, which offers durability and an easy-to-clean surface.
For best results, wipe the shoes with a damp cloth using mild soap. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing.
ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam material that provides excellent shock absorption, helping to cushion impacts and reduce stress on the feet during activity.
Yes, the integrated Stability Web midfoot shank is designed to provide essential arch support and stability, which is important for growing feet.
New Balance generally aims for true-to-size fit. We recommend referring to New Balance's official sizing guide or measuring your child's foot to ensure the best fit, especially for UK children's size 12.
While bungee laces offer convenience, check the shoe size against your child's current foot measurements. If the fit is consistently uncomfortable, consider a different size. Ensure socks are not too thick or thin for the intended fit.
Regularly wipe down the polyester upper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For tougher dirt, use a soft brush. Avoid machine washing, which can degrade materials and cushioning.
Ensure the shoe is the correct size. While the ABZORB cushioning and Stability Web provide support, every child's foot is unique. Check for proper arch support and consider consulting with a pediatrist if discomfort persists, especially if insoles are needed.
Setup: Simply slide your child's foot into the shoe. The bungee lace system is self-adjusting, providing a snug fit without the need for tying. Ensure the tongue is comfortably positioned and the foot is settled correctly. Compatibility: These shoes are designed for kids and are compatible with various everyday activities, light sports, and school wear. They pair well with athletic socks for optimal comfort and moisture management. Care: 1. Cleaning: For general dirt, wipe the polyester upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals. 2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials. 3. Maintenance: Periodically check the bungee laces for wear and ensure the insole is clean. Remove any loose dirt or debris from the outsole regularly to maintain traction. Proper care will extend the life and appearance of the shoes.
