Troubleshooting

Sizing is incorrect

Double-check the child's foot measurement against the UK sizing chart provided by New Balance. Consider the possibility of needing a different size or width.

Discomfort after first wear

New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit.

Color transfer from shoes to socks

This can sometimes occur with new dyed materials, especially in darker colors. It usually diminishes with wear and washing. Consider wearing darker socks initially.
