FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 9060 provides excellent support, it is classified as a lifestyle trainer and is not intended for long-distance or high-intensity running.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing conventions for adult footwear.
How do I clean the grey suede material?
Avoid water. Use a suede-specific brush or eraser to lift dirt and maintain the nap of the material.
Is this a unisex shoe?
Yes, the New Balance 9060 series is designed to accommodate both men's and women's foot shapes.
Can I replace the insoles with my own orthotics?
The insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of tightness in the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to be looser across the midfoot area or opt for thinner socks.
Heel slippage while walking
Ensure you are using the top-most eyelet for a 'runner's loop' or 'lock lacing' technique to secure the heel.
Surface scuffing on the upper
Use a dry suede eraser or soft-bristled brush to gently buff away scuffs on leather or suede panels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 9060 trainers maintain their appearance, we recommend avoiding submersion in water or machine washing. For day-to-day maintenance, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the outsole and uppers. If stains occur on the fabric or suede portions, use a specialized sneaker cleaner applied with a damp cloth. Because these shoes follow standard UK sizing, choose your typical footwear size; however, if you wear thick orthotics, consider that the internal structure provides significant built-in support that may conflict with additional inserts.
