FAQs

How should I clean the suede on my New Balance 9060s?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning or stains, use a suede eraser or a suede cleaning solution with a clean cloth. Always brush in the direction of the nap and allow to air dry. Avoid machine washing.

Are these shoes suitable for running or athletic activities?

The New Balance 9060 is primarily designed as a lifestyle shoe focused on comfort and style for everyday wear. While they offer excellent cushioning, they are not optimized for high-performance running or intense athletic training.

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam material that provides superior shock absorption. It's designed to cushion impact and minimize stress on your feet and joints, offering exceptional comfort.

Are the New Balance 9060 true to size?

Generally, the New Balance 9060 is considered true to size. However, fit can vary by individual foot shape. It's recommended to try them on if possible or refer to New Balance's official sizing guide.

What does 'unisex' mean for sizing?

Unisex sizing means the shoe is designed to fit both men and women. Typically, unisex sizes align with men's sizing standards. Women often need to size down by 1 to 1.5 sizes from their usual women's shoe size. For example, a women's UK 7 might be a unisex UK 6 or 5.5.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

Due to the suede material, it is not recommended to wear these shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions. Suede can be easily damaged and stained by water. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally and then re-brush the nap with a suede brush.

What is the inspiration behind the 9060's design?

The 9060 draws inspiration from the classic 99X series, reinterpreting its elements with a 'warped sensibility' influenced by the proudly futuristic, visible technology aesthetic of the Y2K era (early 2000s).

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained easily.

Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, gently blot with a suede eraser or a cloth lightly dampened with suede cleaner. Avoid harsh rubbing to prevent damage to the suede nap. Consider applying a suede protector spray.

Shoes feel too loose or too tight.

Adjust the lace-up closure. Ensure laces are evenly tensioned across your foot. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct size; New Balance 9060s are generally considered true to size, but individual foot shapes vary.

The white color is difficult to keep clean.

Regularly wipe down the rubber sole and any synthetic parts with a damp cloth. For the suede, immediate spot cleaning is crucial. Using a protective spray for white suede can significantly reduce how quickly dirt adheres.

Care Instructions

Maintaining the pristine look of your white suede New Balance 9060s requires specific care:

  • General Cleaning: For light dirt and dust, use a soft-bristled brush (like a suede brush) to gently brush off particles. Always brush in one direction to avoid damaging the nap of the suede.
  • Spot Cleaning Suede: For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Alternatively, a small amount of white vinegar applied to a clean cloth can sometimes help lift stains. Blot, do not rub, and allow to air dry. A suede eraser can also be effective for scuffs.
  • Cleaning the Sole: The rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. An old toothbrush can help with stubborn grime in the grooves.
  • Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can damage the suede and adhesives.
  • Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before the first wear and periodically thereafter. This can help repel water and stains.
  • Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration and material degradation.
