FAQs
Are New Balance 9060 Trainers suitable for running?
While the 9060 features advanced cushioning like ABZORB and SBS for comfort, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for casual wear and daily activities rather than performance running. For dedicated running, New Balance offers specific running shoe lines.
How do I choose the right size?
New Balance sizing is generally true to size. For the best fit, we recommend trying them on. If purchasing online, refer to the official New Balance sizing chart and measure your foot to compare.
Can I machine wash my 9060 Trainers?
No, it is highly recommended not to machine wash your New Balance 9060 Trainers. The mixed materials and cushioning technologies can be damaged by machine washing. Hand cleaning with appropriate sneaker cleaning solutions is advised.
What's the best way to clean the white mesh?
For the white mesh, use a soft brush (like a toothbrush) with a mild soap solution (e.g., diluted dish soap) or a specialized mesh cleaner. Gently scrub in circular motions, then wipe with a clean, damp cloth and air dry.
Do the 9060s provide good arch support?
The New Balance 9060 Trainers offer good general arch support due to their robust midsole and cushioning technologies. However, individual arch support needs can vary, and for specific orthopedic concerns, custom orthotics might be considered.
What does ABZORB cushioning do?
ABZORB is a proprietary New Balance foam that provides superior shock absorption and compression resistance. It helps to cushion impact and reduce stress on your feet and joints, offering a more comfortable experience.
Troubleshooting
Trainers appear dirty quickly.
White trainers with mixed textures are prone to showing dirt. Establish a routine of wiping them down with a damp cloth after each use. For tougher stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaner and a soft brush.
Uncomfortable fit or rubbing.
Ensure you have the correct size. Try different lacing techniques to adjust pressure points. Wear appropriate socks for cushioning. If discomfort persists, consider consulting a footwear specialist.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Sometimes squeaking can be caused by moisture trapped inside the shoe or between the insole and outsole. Remove the insole and sprinkle a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch underneath, then replace the insole. Ensure shoes are completely dry before wearing.
Suede parts look matted or dull.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede in one direction. This will lift dirt and restore the texture. For deeper cleaning, use a suede eraser or cleaner.

Care & Maintenance
Maintaining the pristine look of your white New Balance 9060 Trainers, especially with 'mixed textures' and 'mesh upper', requires a gentle approach.
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe down trainers after each wear with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt.
- Spot Cleaning: For stubborn marks, use a sneaker cleaning solution specifically designed for mixed materials. Apply with a soft brush or cloth, gently scrubbing the affected area.
- Suede Care (if applicable): If your trainers feature suede elements (check your specific variant), use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. A suede protector spray can help prevent stains.
- Mesh Care: For mesh areas, a soft brush and mild soap solution can be effective. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not put them in a dryer.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
Do NOT machine wash your New Balance 9060 Trainers, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
