FAQs
Is the New Balance 9060 suitable for running?
While the 9060 uses advanced cushioning tech like ABZORB, it is primarily categorized as a lifestyle/casual trainer rather than a technical performance running shoe.
Does the 9060 run true to size?
The 9060 generally fits true to size, but its bulky aesthetic can sometimes feel slightly more generous in the toe box compared to narrow performance models.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended to avoid machine washing as it can damage the leather and the integrity of the foam cushioning.
What is the primary difference between the 990 and 9060 series?
The 990 is a classic performance-oriented series, while the 9060 reimagines those heritage elements with a more modern, exaggerated, and Y2K-inspired tech-focused aesthetic.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
The leather upper provides some protection against light moisture, but they are not fully waterproof.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface shows scuffs
Gently buff the area with a leather conditioner or a matching cream polish to restore the finish.
Midsole looks dirty
Use a damp sponge with a mild soap solution to wipe down the sculpted midsole sections; avoid soaking the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 9060 trainers last, keep these care instructions in mind:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust from the leather. For deeper cleaning, apply a dedicated leather cleaner sparingly using a soft cloth.
- Moisture Protection: Applying a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray will help maintain the finish of the black leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading.
- Compatibility: These are unisex-inspired designs that pair well with casual trousers, jeans, or athleisure wear.
