FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These trainers are designed for general wear and light athletic activities, offering good cushioning and traction. They are not specialized for high-impact or professional sports.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for children's shoes. It is recommended to measure your child's foot length and compare it to the chart for the best fit. Ensure there is a little room for growth.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method to maintain the integrity of the materials and construction.

What is the primary benefit of the ABZORB midsole?

The ABZORB midsole is engineered to absorb impact and provide responsive cushioning, offering superior comfort and reducing stress on the feet during wear.

How should I store these trainers when not in use?

Store the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in a shoe box or on a shelf can help maintain their shape and prevent dust accumulation.

What are the main materials used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of breathable textile mesh and durable synthetic overlays for a supportive and comfortable fit.

How often should I clean my child's trainers?

Clean the trainers as needed, especially after significant dirt or spills. Regular spot cleaning can help maintain their appearance and hygiene.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not pulled too tight. Check if the size is correct; consider trying a half-size up if consistently uncomfortable.

Slipping on certain surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from excessive dirt or debris that might hinder traction. For extremely slick surfaces, caution is advised.

Discoloration after cleaning

Ensure you are using mild soap and water only, and avoiding harsh chemicals. Always air dry and do not expose to direct sunlight for extended periods.

Reduced cushioning over time

While ABZORB technology is durable, cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Regular cleaning and avoiding overuse for high-impact activities can help prolong their performance.

Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and appearance of your New Balance 1000 Junior Trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently clean the mesh and synthetic areas with a soft brush or a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
