The New Balance 9060 is designed for individuals who appreciate a sneaker that blends the heritage of New Balance's classic 99X series with a bold, futuristic Y2K aesthetic. Its key win is providing superior comfort through ABZORB and SBS cushioning while making a distinctive style statement. However, its exaggerated design and premium materials, particularly the white suede, mean it requires thoughtful care and might not suit every personal style.

The New Balance 9060 is primarily designed for lifestyle, comfort, and style rather than high-performance running. While they offer excellent cushioning for daily wear and walking, they are not engineered with the specific support or lightweight characteristics typically found in dedicated running shoes.
For white suede, it's crucial to clean regularly. Use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner to a clean cloth and gently blot the affected area. Allow to air dry, then re-brush the suede to restore its texture. Avoid harsh scrubbing or soaking.
Generally, New Balance 9060s are considered to fit true to size for most individuals. However, foot shape can vary. We recommend trying your usual UK shoe size first. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up, especially if you prefer a slightly roomier fit or plan to wear thicker socks.
The 9060's bold, retro-futuristic design makes it ideal for casual and streetwear looks. It pairs excellent with jeans, joggers, cargo pants, shorts, and even adds a stylish edge to casual dresses or skirts. Its 'White' colour offers versatility for many colour palettes.
No, the New Balance 9060s are not waterproof. The suede and polyester upper materials are not designed to be water-resistant. Exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions can damage the materials, particularly the suede. We recommend using a water and stain repellent spray for added protection in light moisture.
ABZORB is New Balance's proprietary foam material that provides superior cushioning and compression resistance, absorbing impact effectively. SBS (Styrene Butadiene Styrene) is a non-cellular rubber compound that provides additional stability and dynamic cushioning, working in conjunction with ABZORB to offer a comfortable and responsive ride.
Regularly brush the suede with a specialized suede brush. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaning kit. Apply a protective spray designed for suede before initial wear to help repel dirt and water.
While the 9060 features an exaggerated design, ensure your laces are adjusted properly for a snug fit. Trying different sock thicknesses (thinner for more space, thicker for a tighter feel) can also help. Verify you ordered the correct UK size 5.5.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. Dirt and debris can reduce traction. Wipe the sole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove any buildup.
The shoe's material blend includes suede and polyester. While comfortable, it might feel warmer than shoes made primarily of mesh. Opt for moisture-wicking socks to help manage foot temperature and sweat.
Getting started with your New Balance 9060 is straightforward. Simply use the traditional lace-up closure to adjust the fit to your comfort. Ensure laces are snug but not too tight, allowing for natural foot movement throughout the day. The padded tongue will help provide a comfortable experience right out of the box.
The New Balance 9060's unique design and 'White' colour family make it highly compatible with a wide range of casual and streetwear outfits. It pairs well with:
