Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 9060 is designed for fashion-forward adults who value a blend of heritage inspiration and modern, Y2K-influenced aesthetics. It offers superior cushioning and a bold, architectural silhouette, making it an excellent choice for all-day casual wear. However, potential buyers should note that the sculpted, chunky midsole design results in a larger physical footprint compared to traditional, low-profile running shoes.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The New Balance 9060 generally fits true to size, but the structured upper might feel slightly snug initially. We recommend ordering your standard size.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No. Submerging suede trainers in water and subjecting them to the agitation of a washing machine will ruin the material and degrade the adhesives.
What is the difference between ABZORB and SBS cushioning?
ABZORB is a foam-based cushioning that provides shock absorption, while SBS adds additional energy return and stability to the platform.
Are these suitable for long-distance running?
The 9060 is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for walking and daily activities rather than high-performance distance running.
How do I ensure I get the right width?
New Balance trainers are generally built on a standard width; if you have particularly wide feet, you may want to size up by a half size.
Does the brown suede fade?
Like all dyed natural materials, suede can fade if exposed to excessive direct sunlight for long periods. Store them in a dark, cool space.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the suede upper
Use a specialized suede eraser or a clean, soft-bristled brush to gently buff the scuff away in the direction of the nap.
Creasing at the toe box after prolonged use
Insert shoe trees when not in use to help the shoe maintain its structural shape and reduce deep-set creases.
Dirt buildup in the complex midsole ridges
Use a soft toothbrush or a damp microfiber cloth to carefully wipe away dirt from the crevices of the sculpted midsole pods.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your 9060s remain in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Apply a high-quality suede protector spray before first use to guard against moisture and dirt.
- Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dust and dirt after each wear.
- Deep Cleaning: If the suede becomes stained, use a dedicated suede cleaning block and a soft cloth; avoid using water or standard laundry soaps which can damage the nap of the material.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the material colors to fade over time.
- Compatibility: These are unisex trainers; check the size chart to ensure the correct UK fit, as sizing may vary slightly based on individual foot width.
