Product Information

Full details

The New Balance NB FLASH trainers are designed for active children who need a reliable, everyday shoe that balances style with structural support. Featuring a clean, streamlined profile and a secure lace-up system, these trainers provide excellent coverage for casual leisure activities and school wear. While they offer a classic, enduring look, it is important to note that the lace-up design may require assistance for younger children who have not yet mastered tying their own shoes.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The NB FLASH trainers have a standard, structured fit. If your child has very wide feet, you may want to ensure the laces are adjusted to accommodate extra volume.

Are these machine washable?

We recommend hand-cleaning with a damp cloth. Machine washing can compromise the structural integrity and adhesive strength of the trainers.

What age group are these for?

These trainers are specifically sized and designed for children.

Can these be used for sports?

These are intended for casual, everyday leisure use. While durable, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact sports like basketball or track.

Do they provide good arch support?

The trainers offer standard support suitable for growing feet, but they are not categorized as orthopedic footwear.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

Ensure a double knot is used, or consider replacing with elastic no-tie laces if the child struggles with traditional ties.

Exterior scuffs or marks

Use a specialized sneaker cleaning wipe or a soft sponge with mild soapy water to gently buff out surface dirt.

Foot discomfort or tightness

Check if the laces are tied too tightly across the bridge of the foot; re-adjust the lacing pattern to provide more room.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction suitable for active kids
  • Classic black and white colorway matches most outfits
  • Structured design provides good foot stability
  • Reliable lace-up system for a secure fit

Cons

  • Lace-up fastening requires tying skill
  • Color palette is limited to neutral options
  • Best suited for casual use rather than high-intensity sports

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure the laces are loosened entirely before putting the shoe on, then tighten from the bottom eyelets upward to achieve a uniform, secure tension. Because these trainers are made with synthetic materials and classic fabrics, they are easy to maintain. Keep them clean by wiping the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can degrade the adhesives holding the sole in place. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material discoloration.
