FAQs
What materials are used in the New Balance 9060 Black Leather?
These trainers feature a combination of breathable mesh, soft suede, and durable synthetic leather overlays for a premium feel and look.
Are these shoes suitable for running or athletic sports?
While comfortable, the New Balance 9060 Black Leather is primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes, not for high-performance running or intense athletic activities.
How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?
For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a dedicated suede cleaner should be used sparingly, following the product's instructions. Avoid getting suede excessively wet.
What is ABZORB cushioning?
ABZORB is New Balance's proprietary foam-based cushioning technology that provides superior shock absorption, helping to reduce impact stress and enhance overall comfort.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While the synthetic leather offers some water resistance, the suede and mesh components are not waterproof. It's best to avoid heavy rain to protect the materials and maintain the shoe's condition.
Do New Balance 9060s run true to size?
Generally, New Balance 9060s are considered to run true to size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. We recommend trying them on if possible or consulting a New Balance size guide.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound when walking
Often caused by the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole. If the issue persists, the outsole might be separating slightly, which may require professional repair.
Scuffs or marks on suede/leather sections
For suede, use a specialized suede eraser or brush to gently buff out marks. For leather, a soft, damp cloth can often clean superficial scuffs. For deeper marks, a leather cleaner or conditioner may be needed. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoes feel uncomfortable or too stiff initially
New trainers, especially those with leather components, can require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the materials to soften and conform to your feet. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for cushioning and fit. If discomfort persists, re-evaluate your sizing.
Unpleasant odour from inside the shoes
Odours are typically caused by moisture and bacteria. Remove insoles and allow them to air out. Insert shoe deodorizers or a sachet of baking soda overnight. Ensure shoes are thoroughly dried after wear or cleaning, and consider rotating between multiple pairs to allow them to fully air out.

Care
To maintain the premium look and longevity of your New Balance 9060 Black Leather trainers, consistent care is recommended, especially given the mix of materials:
- General Cleaning: Regularly wipe down the mesh and synthetic leather areas with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild shoe cleaner designed for multi-material footwear.
- Suede Care: For the suede sections, use a specialized suede brush to remove surface dirt and restore the nap. For stains, apply a suede cleaner sparingly and follow product instructions carefully. *Avoid excessive water on suede*.
- Leather Care: Clean leather overlays with a damp cloth. Consider using a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather soft and prevent cracking.
- Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. *Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials*.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Shoe trees can help maintain their shape when not in use.
- Odour Control: If needed, use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odours.
