Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 9060 trainers, avoid machine washing, which can damage the delicate midsole pods and polyester upper. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush or a dry cloth to gently wipe away surface dirt. If the shoes become heavily soiled, use a mild detergent mixed with warm water and spot-clean the affected areas before air-drying away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Because of their unique structure, ensure your toddler wears appropriate, breathable socks to maximize the comfort of the inner padding.
