How do I clean the leather material of these shoes?

Is the UK 10 size a standard fit for kids?

New Balance typically offers a true-to-size fit for children. However, as foot sizes can vary, it is always recommended to measure your child's foot and compare it to the official New Balance size chart for the most accurate fit.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel uncomfortable or too tight/loose.

Ensure the shoe size (UK 10) is correct for your child's current foot measurement. New Balance sizes typically run true, but children's feet grow quickly. Try adjusting the lacing for a more customized fit. If discomfort persists, consider checking if the shoe width is appropriate for their foot.

Leather upper appears dull or stained.

Regularly wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner to restore its luster and protect the material. Always test cleaners on a small, hidden area first.

Squeaking sound when walking.

A squeak often comes from friction between the insole and the inside of the shoe. Try removing the insole, dusting a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole firmly. If the sound persists, check if the outsole is securely attached.

Shoes get scuffed easily.

While leather is durable, light scuffs are common with active wear. Use a leather polish or balm in a matching grey color to minimize the appearance of scuffs. Regular cleaning and conditioning can also help protect the surface.

Care Instructions

Maintaining the quality and appearance of your leather New Balance 9060s requires simple, regular care:

  1. Regular Cleaning: For general dirt and dust, gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, *slightly* damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing which can damage the leather.
  2. Spot Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a mild soap solution (like saddle soap) applied sparingly to a cloth. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
  3. Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never place them near direct heat sources (like radiators or in direct sunlight), as this can cause the leather to crack or shrink.
  4. Conditioning: Periodically, apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. Follow the product instructions for application.
  5. Storage: When not in use, store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  6. Avoid Submersion: Do not submerge leather shoes in water, as this can damage the material and glues.
