Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 9060 trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of heritage-inspired aesthetics and modern everyday comfort. These unisex sneakers feature a refined upper construction that balances high-end style with athletic performance, making them an ideal choice for casual daily wear or lifestyle activities. While their bulky, statement-making silhouette offers excellent support, they may feel slightly heavier than minimalist running shoes, so users prioritizing ultralight gear should take note.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 9060 is inspired by athletic trainers, it is designed for lifestyle and casual wear rather than long-distance or high-intensity running.
Does this model come in different widths?
The New Balance 9060 is typically produced in a standard width fit.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and materials of the sneaker. Spot cleaning is recommended.
How should I store these trainers to keep them in good condition?
Store them in a well-ventilated, dry place. Using shoe trees can help the sneakers maintain their shape when not in use.
Is the black colorway fade-resistant?
The material is durable, but extended exposure to direct, harsh sunlight can cause fading over long periods. Store indoors when not wearing.
What is the best way to lace them for a secure fit?
The standard factory lacing provides a balanced fit. Use the top eyelet to create a 'runner's loop' if you require additional ankle lockdown.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt accumulating in the mesh
Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the mesh after dirt has dried; avoid water initially to prevent pushing mud into the fibers.
Insole comfort seems reduced after long-term wear
Consider replacing the factory insole with a third-party performance insole to restore cushioning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The New Balance 9060 trainers come ready to wear out of the box with standard lacing. For optimal longevity, keep the shoes away from extreme moisture or mud to preserve the mesh integrity. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the mesh and use a damp cloth with mild soap for the mudguard and outsole areas. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the specialized adhesives and materials. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading.
