How do I clean the New Balance 1906 GS sneakers?

Do these shoes offer good ankle support?

Are the materials durable?
Yes, with a mesh upper designed for breathability and a durable Nergy outsole for grip, these sneakers are built to withstand the rigors of active children's wear. The exact composition should be checked on the product label.
What is ABZORB cushioning?

Troubleshooting
Sneakers feel too tight or loose.
Check the lacing. Ensure laces are evenly tightened, not too loose to cause slipping, nor too tight to restrict blood flow. If the size is incorrect, consider trying a different size or width.
Foot discomfort or rubbing.
Ensure socks are appropriate for the activity and fit well. Check for any debris inside the shoe. Allow for a short break-in period if new. If discomfort persists, consult a sizing guide or consider an alternative insole.
Soles seem slippery.
The Nergy outsole is designed for grip, but ensure the sole is clean from mud, dirt, or oils that could reduce traction. Avoid wearing on extremely smooth, wet, or icy surfaces if not explicitly designed for those conditions.
Shoes look dirty or stained.
Refer to the product care label for specific cleaning instructions. Generally, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap for surface dirt. For mesh, a soft brush can help. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing unless explicitly stated on the label.
