Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 9060 is designed for adults seeking a blend of heritage-inspired style and contemporary comfort, making it an ideal daily sneaker for urban environments. By reimagining elements of the classic 99X series through a Y2K-inspired lens, these trainers offer superior impact absorption and a distinct, bold silhouette; however, the exaggerated midsole and sculpted proportions result in a heavier build that may feel bulkier than traditional performance running shoes.

FAQs
Are the New Balance 9060s true to size?
Yes, they generally run true to standard New Balance sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may prefer a half-size larger for extra room.
Can I use these for running?
While they feature advanced cushioning, these are designed as lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for serious running or athletic training.
How do I clean the suede elements?
Use a specific suede brush to gently remove dirt. Do not use water on suede, as it can cause discoloration.
What is the purpose of the translucent heel device?
It acts as a CR (counter reinforcement) device, providing added stability and support to the rear of the shoe.
Are they waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof and should not be worn in heavy rain or deep puddles to preserve the materials.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or dirt in the mesh areas
Use a soft, dry brush to gently sweep away loose debris from the mesh pores.
Creasing on the sculpted midsole
Midsole creasing is a natural characteristic of EVA-based foam; stuffing the shoes with paper when not in use can help maintain the shape.
Feeling too tight across the midfoot
Try an alternative lacing technique, such as skipping the eyelet over the tightest area to increase volume.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 9060s remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper utilizes a combination of materials, it is best to spot clean with a soft-bristled brush and mild detergent if the shoes become soiled. Avoid submerging them in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as this can degrade the synthetic and textile components. When fitting, these trainers generally follow standard adult sizing, but the structured nature of the sway bars means they may feel more secure around the midfoot than a traditional mesh runner. Always ensure the laces are adjusted to provide a locked-in fit without restricting circulation.
