FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, it is recommended to spot clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap to preserve the structural integrity of the cushioning pods.

Are the 9060s good for running?

While they offer great comfort and support, they are lifestyle trainers designed for casual use, not high-intensity athletic running.

Do these come in other materials besides nylon?

Yes, depending on the specific variant or colorway, New Balance also produces 9060 models featuring suede or leather.

What does the ABZORB technology do?

ABZORB is a specialized cushioning material that absorbs impact and reduces the shock transmitted to the foot and joints.

How do I ensure I have the right size?

We recommend measuring your child's feet in the afternoon when they are slightly swollen from activity to ensure a comfortable fit that isn't too tight.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight after a few months

Children's feet grow quickly; check the inner sizing and consider an upgrade to the next size up if the toe box feels restricted.

Dirt stuck in the midsole pods

Use a soft-bristled brush or an old toothbrush to gently dislodge debris from the wavy lines and crevices of the sculpted midsole.

Laces coming undone frequently

Double-knot the laces or ensure they are pulled evenly from the bottom eyelets upward to maintain tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers come ready to wear out of the box. Ensure the fit is checked for the specific UK size to allow for appropriate room for growing feet. For care, avoid putting these shoes in a washing machine as it can damage the specialized midsole pods and delicate nylon upper. To clean, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth and use a mild soap for stubborn spots. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the cushioning materials. Periodically check the outsole tread for debris to ensure maximum grip.
