They are best paired with relaxed, everyday outfits rather than formal wear or intensely athletic gear.* Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your child's beige linen-look New Balance 373 shoes: 1. Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt or stains, gently wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth using mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. 2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the material and adhesives. 3. Deep Cleaning: For more thorough cleaning, a soft brush can be used to gently remove loose dirt before spot cleaning. Always test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first. 4. Protection: Consider using a fabric protector spray designed for linen or textile materials to help repel water and stains, following the product's instructions. 5. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent fading or material degradation.
