FAQs
Are these suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, they are designed for early walkers and are suitable for both indoor and outdoor surfaces.
How do I determine the right size?
Measure the child's foot from heel to toe while they are standing and compare it to the New Balance UK infant size chart.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede material and affect the structure of the shoe. Use spot cleaning only.
Is the material breathable?
The suede construction offers a balance of durability and comfort for infant feet during daily wear.
What if the shoes get wet?
Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators.
Troubleshooting
The shoe keeps sliding off
Ensure the hook-and-loop strap is pulled taut and fully engaged with the patch.
Suede looks matted after use
Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the right fit is the most important step for infant footwear. Ensure your child is wearing the appropriate sock thickness before measuring the foot. To clean, avoid submerging the suede in water. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dried dirt. For persistent spots, use a dedicated suede cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap, dabbing lightly rather than scrubbing. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the suede from fading over time.
