Full details

By reinterpreting the classic 99X series through a Y2K-inspired lens, these shoes offer significant cushioning benefits and a unique look, though the bold, sculpted design may be bulkier than traditional minimalist athletic footwear.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 9060 features performance-based cushioning, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer for everyday wear.
How do I clean the suede?
Use a soft brush specifically designed for suede to gently brush away dirt. Avoid using water or harsh detergents.
Is the sizing true to size?
The 9060 typically follows standard New Balance sizing. We recommend checking the UK size conversion chart provided.
What is the primary difference between the 990 and the 9060?
The 9060 reinterprets elements of the 99X series with a more futuristic, exaggerated silhouette and updated midsole tech.
Are these shoes unisex?

Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede upper
Use a specialized suede brush or a clean, dry cloth to gently lift dirt particles away from the grain.
Sole appears bulky or uneven
The sculpted pod midsole is a design feature for cushioning and stability; ensure both feet are laced evenly to maintain proper alignment.
Creasing during wear
As with any suede shoe, slight creasing is normal; using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 9060 trainers stay in optimal condition, proper care is essential:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt from the suede material. Avoid fully submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the suede texture.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the grey suede upper.
- Maintenance: If the shoes become damp, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from heat sources.
- Compatibility: These trainers are designed as unisex footwear for children, fitting standard foot shapes, but users should check the sizing guide to ensure an accurate fit for growing feet.
