FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for casual use and play, rather than specialized athletic gear for competitive sports.
How do I determine the correct size?
The New Balance 9060 uses standard UK sizing. Measure the child's foot length and compare it to the brand's size guide for the best fit.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the specialized midsole cushioning and synthetic upper materials.
Do these provide good arch support?
Yes, the engineered midsole and structural sway bars are designed to provide stable support suitable for developing feet.
Is the material waterproof?
The polyester upper is durable but not waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain or puddles to maintain the integrity of the materials.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt accumulation in the wavy midsole textures
Use an old soft toothbrush dipped in a mild soapy solution to gently scrub the recessed areas of the sculpted midsole.
Shoes feeling slightly stiff after storage
Wiggle the shoe by hand to loosen the upper material and wear them for short durations to allow the foam to soften naturally.

Care Instructions
- Surface Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried dirt or debris from the polyester upper.
- Spot Treatment: Wipe with a damp cloth and mild, non-detergent soap. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or solvents that could damage the synthetic fibers.
- Air Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, which can cause the midsole materials to warp or degrade.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading.
