How do I ensure I select the correct size?

How often should I clean my child's trainers?
Clean your child's trainers as needed, especially after heavy use or exposure to dirt. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth helps maintain their appearance.

Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Ensure feet are properly measured. Refer to the New Balance size chart and consider the specific fit of the 9060 model. Trying on the shoes is highly recommended.
Cushioning feels too firm initially
New shoes, especially with advanced cushioning like ABZORB and SBS, may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the cushioning to adapt.
Discoloration on upper material
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions to remove surface dirt.
Soles showing wear and tear
Ensure the shoes are used for their intended purpose (casual wear, light activity) and not for strenuous sports. Check for any manufacturing defects within the warranty period.
