FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the New Balance 9060 generally follows standard sizing, though some users prefer a half-size larger for extra room.
Can I use these for running?
The 9060 is designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer; it is not recommended for high-intensity running or gym workouts.
How do I clean the black fabric?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the structural integrity.
Is this a unisex model?
Yes, the 9060 is a unisex trainer, designed to fit a wide range of adult foot shapes.
Will the black color fade?
While the material is high quality, it is best to avoid prolonged exposure to direct, intense sunlight to maintain the deep black tone.
What makes the 9060 series different?
The 9060 is known for its exaggerated, futuristic midsole and technical aesthetic that sets it apart from traditional heritage runners.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel slightly tight initially
Wear them with thin socks for the first few days to allow the internal cushioning to mold to your foot shape.
Visible dust on the black material
Gently wipe with a microfiber cloth or use a lint roller to restore the deep black appearance.
Creasing in the toe box area
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the structure and minimize deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 9060 trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the size is correct upon arrival, as New Balance sizing is consistent but benefits from a proper "break-in" period of a few hours.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the upper. For deeper stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation or color fading.
- Protection: Consider applying a water-repellent spray designed for synthetic and textile footwear to protect against light rain and spills.
