New Balance 9060 Junior Trainers - Brown - Size: 1

ABZORB SBS is an advanced cushioning technology used in New Balance shoes, particularly in the heel, designed to provide superior shock absorption and comfort by compressing and resisting set.

While not designed as specialized sports shoes, their comfort and cushioning make them suitable for general active play, running around, and light sporting activities.

The trainers feature a synthetic suede and mesh upper for breathability and style, a textile lining for comfort, and a durable rubber sole for traction and longevity.

Measure your child's feet accurately and refer to New Balance's sizing guide. Ensure there is about a thumb's width space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.

While durable, the suede and mesh upper is not fully waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials. Consider applying a water-repellent spray for light protection.

The 'Y2K aesthetic' refers to the design inspiration from the late 1990s and early 2000s, characterized by chunky silhouettes, unique paneling, and a slightly futuristic look, giving these trainers a distinct, on-trend style.

Ensure you have the correct size for your child. Check that laces are not tied too tightly. Consider wearing thinner socks initially to break them in.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap. For dirt or stains, use a suede cleaner following its instructions carefully. Always brush in one direction.

Remove insoles if possible and allow trainers to air out completely. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or place baking soda inside overnight to absorb odors.

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole.
