Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
Getting started with your New Balance 9060 shoes is simple:
- Lacing: Ensure laces are securely tied to provide a snug yet comfortable fit. Teach younger children how to tie their laces or use double knots for extra security during active play.
- Initial Wear: Encourage your child to wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow for any minor break-in, though the cushioning is designed for immediate comfort.
Compatibility
- Age Group: These shoes are designed specifically for kids.
- Gender: They are a unisex model, suitable for both boys and girls.
- Activities: Ideal for a wide range of activities including casual wear, play, school, and light sports.
Product Care
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your New Balance 9060 shoes:
- Spot Cleaning: For light dirt or marks, use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap. Gently scrub the affected area. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning Synthetic Suede: Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For tougher spots, a slightly damp cloth with a specialized suede cleaner can be used sparingly. Let it air dry completely.
- Cleaning Mesh: A soft brush or old toothbrush can help remove dirt from mesh areas. A damp cloth with mild soap can clean surface grime. Do not submerge the shoes in water.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can damage materials.
- Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically to air them out. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for extended periods.
