Troubleshooting
Difficulty putting on shoes for infants/toddlers
Ensure the laces are fully loosened or check if the specific model includes additional closures to assist with foot entry.
Outer material showing signs of dirt
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner safe for the specific material (suede vs. synthetic) to gently wipe the area.
Midsole looks compressed
Rotate your footwear to allow the foam cushioning to recover its shape naturally over 24-48 hours.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 9060 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: For suede models, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust. For polyester and nylon versions, a damp cloth with mild soap is usually sufficient.
- Storage: Keep shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
- Fit Check: Ensure the size corresponds to the specific age group (infant, toddler, or junior) as sizing can differ significantly between these categories.
- Maintenance: Avoid machine washing, as this can damage the structural integrity of the midsole and the adhesive materials.
