FAQs
How do I clean my New Balance 9060 trainers?
For general cleaning, use a soft brush for suede and a damp cloth with mild soap for mesh and rubber. Avoid harsh chemicals and machine washing. For specific suede stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner. Always air dry your trainers.
Are these trainers suitable for running or gym workouts?
No, the New Balance 9060 trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer excellent comfort, they are not engineered for the specific demands of running or high-intensity gym workouts. For athletic activities, New Balance offers specialized performance footwear.
What does ABZORB and SBS cushioning mean?
ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam that provides exceptional shock absorption, dissipating impact forces. SBS cushioning is a non-cellular rubber compound that offers additional stable cushioning and helps prevent compression set, contributing to lasting comfort and support.
Do New Balance 9060 trainers run true to size?
Generally, New Balance 9060 trainers tend to run true to size for most individuals. However, fit can vary based on individual foot shape. If you are between sizes, it's often recommended to go up half a size for comfort, especially with lifestyle sneakers.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
Due to the suede and mesh materials, it is advisable to avoid heavy rain or wet conditions. Suede can be susceptible to water damage and staining, and mesh offers limited water resistance. For light moisture, a protective spray can help, but they are not waterproof.
What kind of socks should I wear with these trainers?
For optimal comfort and breathability, we recommend wearing moisture-wicking athletic socks. These will help manage sweat and prevent discomfort, enhancing the overall experience of the trainer's breathable design.
Troubleshooting
My trainers feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing system. If still uncomfortable, ensure you have the correct size. New Balance sizes are generally consistent, but individual foot shapes vary. Consider trying on different sizes if possible.
The white areas or suede are getting dirty quickly.
Regularly clean your trainers after wear. For suede, use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and a dedicated suede cleaner for spots. For mesh and other white areas, a mild shoe cleaner or diluted soap with a soft cloth can be effective. Consider applying a protective spray designed for shoes to help repel dirt and water.
My feet feel hot or sweaty after prolonged wear.
While the trainers feature a breathable mesh upper, prolonged wear in hot conditions or with non-breathable socks can lead to discomfort. Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks. You can also remove the insoles periodically to air them out or replace them with more breathable options if needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your New Balance 9060 Trainers involves proper 'setup,' understanding their compatibility with your lifestyle, and consistent care.
Initial Fit and Lacing
- Unboxing: Remove the trainers from their packaging.
- Try On: Wear your usual athletic socks and try on both trainers to assess the fit. Ensure your toes have enough room to wiggle slightly, and your heel feels secure without slipping.
- Lace Adjustment: The lace-up closure allows for a customized fit. Start by loosening the laces completely, then tighten them from the toe upwards, ensuring a snug but not overly tight fit across the top of your foot. Double-knot for security if desired.
Compatibility
- Apparel: The New Balance 9060's blend of retro and modern design makes them highly compatible with various casual and semi-casual outfits. They pair well with: jeans, joggers, shorts, chinos, oversized hoodies, t-shirts, and even some relaxed-fit trousers.
- Activities: Best suited for lifestyle wear, light walking, and daily casual activities. Not recommended for intense athletic training, running, or rigorous outdoor sports due to their specific design and material composition.
Care and Maintenance
Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers, especially given the white color and mixed materials.
- General Cleaning: For light dirt and dust, gently brush the suede with a soft brush (a dedicated suede brush is ideal) and wipe the mesh and rubber sole with a damp, soft cloth.
- Spot Cleaning: For stubborn marks, use a small amount of mild soap (e.g., dish soap) diluted in water. Apply with a clean cloth or soft brush, then gently wipe away with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid saturating the materials.
- Suede Care: Suede is delicate. Avoid excessive scrubbing. Consider using a suede protector spray before initial wear and after cleaning to repel water and stains. If wet, allow suede to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Mesh Care: Use a soft brush or cloth to gently clean mesh areas. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the fabric.
- Sole Cleaning: Use a stiff brush or old toothbrush with mild soap and water to clean the rubber sole. Wipe clean.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can damage materials.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Do NOT machine wash or machine dry your trainers, as this can cause significant damage to the materials, adhesives, and cushioning.
