FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the suede material and compromise the shoe's structure. Stick to manual surface cleaning.
Does the 9060 fit true to size?
The 9060 generally fits true to size, but the exaggerated midsole and structured upper provide a snug, supportive feel.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper is constructed primarily from premium suede.
Can these be worn for sports?
While they are comfortable for casual activity, they are designed as lifestyle trainers rather than high-performance athletic equipment.
How do I protect the suede from water?
Applying a water-repellent spray designed for suede can help prevent light rain damage, but you should avoid wearing them in heavy downpours.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dusty
Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently buff the suede in a circular motion to restore the nap.
Midsole foam is scuffed
Use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe down the rubberized pod midsole, taking care not to let water seep into the suede upper.
Pros and Cons

- Distinctive Y2K aesthetic remains trendy and versatile

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, verify your child's UK size before purchase, as the 9060 series has a unique, slightly bulky structure. For cleaning, avoid submerging the shoes in water. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust from the suede regularly. For tougher stains, utilize a dedicated suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaning solution applied sparingly with a cloth. Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the suede from hardening or the adhesive from weakening.
