Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Getting started with your Nike Court Borough Mid 2 is straightforward:
- Unboxing: Carefully remove the shoes from their packaging.
- Lacing: Ensure the traditional laces are properly threaded through all eyelets. Loosen them sufficiently to allow your child's foot to slide in comfortably.
- Wearing: Have your child put on socks and then the shoes. Gently press down on the heel to ensure the foot is fully seated in the shoe.
- Adjusting Fit: Tighten the laces from the bottom upwards, ensuring a snug but not overly tight fit. Tie a double knot for extra security, especially for active children.
Compatibility
These trainers are designed for `kids` and are `Unisex`, making them suitable for all children. They are perfect for:
- Daily school wear
- Casual outings and playdates
- Light recreational activities
- Complementing various casual outfits
They are not specifically designed for high-performance sports like competitive basketball or track and field, but excel in everyday general use.
Care
The leather construction makes these shoes durable and relatively easy to care for:
- Regular Cleaning: For general dirt and dust, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild leather cleaner or a small amount of mild soap diluted in water.
- Scuff Removal: Minor scuffs on leather can often be buffed out gently with a clean, dry cloth or a specialized leather conditioner.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, remove the insoles (if removable) and stuff the shoes with paper towels or newspaper to absorb moisture. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), which can damage the leather.
- Conditioning (Optional): Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking, especially in dry climates.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
