FAQs
Can these shoes be put in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can ruin the suede material and affect the integrity of the cushioning foam.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they provide excellent support for walking and everyday activities, they are classified as fashion trainers rather than dedicated high-performance running gear.
What is the primary material used in the construction?
The upper is constructed using high-quality suede, chosen for its aesthetic appeal and durability.
How do I know which size to pick for my child?
New Balance 9060s generally fit true to size. We recommend measuring your child's feet in the afternoon when they are slightly swollen to ensure the most comfortable fit.
Do these shoes provide good arch support?
Yes, the sculpted pod midsole with ABZORB and SBS cushioning offers significant arch support and comfort for all-day wear.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede surfaces
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt in one direction.
Water spots or dampness
Pat dry with a clean, dry cloth and let air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
Laces coming undone
Double-knot the laces or consider replacing them with shorter performance laces if they are too long for the child.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-level comfort from combined ABZORB and SBS cushioning.
- Unique, trend-forward design inspired by futuristic aesthetics.
- Durable construction suitable for active children.
- Versatile grey colorway pairs easily with most outfits.
Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature suede panels, they should not be machine washed, as water and heat can damage the texture and color. To maintain the shoes, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust regularly. If the shoes get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner or eraser kit. Ensure your child wears appropriate athletic socks to preserve the interior lining of the shoe. If you are between sizes, consider the specific fit of the 9060 series, which tends to run true to size but provides a secure, structured fit due to the layered construction.
