FAQs
What is Abzorb cushioning?
Abzorb is a proprietary foam-based cushioning technology developed by New Balance. It combines cushioning and compression resistance properties, providing excellent shock absorption and energy return for a comfortable stride.
Are these shoes suitable for running or exercise?
The New Balance 9060 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual sneaker. While it offers comfort for walking, it is not optimized for high-performance running or intense athletic activities that require specialized support and stability features.
How do I determine my correct size?
The New Balance 9060 typically runs true to size. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider your preferred fit for casual sneakers or consult a New Balance sizing guide.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
Due to the suede material, it is advisable to avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions. Suede can be sensitive to moisture and may stain or get damaged. If caught in the rain, allow them to air dry thoroughly and consider using a water-repellent spray.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper features a combination of charcoal gray mesh for breathability and comfort, complemented by charcoal suede overlays that provide structure, durability, and a premium aesthetic.
How often should I clean my New Balance 9060 Charcoal?
Cleaning frequency depends on how often you wear them and the conditions. For general maintenance, a quick brush-down after each wear can help. A more thorough cleaning is recommended when visible dirt or stains appear, or every few weeks with regular use.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted.
Use a suede brush with short, firm bristles to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. Brush in one direction for best results.
Visible dirt or light stains on the suede.
Apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner to a clean cloth and dab the affected area gently. Follow with a suede eraser for tough spots, then brush.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Check if the insoles are properly seated. If the squeak persists, a small amount of baby powder under the insole can sometimes resolve friction issues.
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable after initial wear.
Ensure you have the correct size. New shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to conform to your feet.

Care
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your New Balance 9060 Charcoal:
- Suede Cleaning: For suede overlays, use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for footwear, applying it sparingly and following the product instructions carefully.
- Mesh Cleaning: For the mesh base, use a soft cloth or sponge dampened with mild soap and water. Gently wipe the affected areas.
- Midsole Cleaning: Clean the white and cream midsole with a soft brush and mild soap and water to remove dirt and scuffs.
- Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can damage the materials, especially suede.
- Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray suitable for suede and mesh materials to add an extra layer of protection against elements and spills.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
