FAQs

What age group are these New Balance 9060 shoes designed for?

These New Balance 9060 shoes are specifically designed for kids, falling into the 'grade school' age group, making them suitable for growing feet.

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear or specific sports?

While durable and supportive, these shoes are best suited for everyday casual wear, school, and general recreational activities. They are not designed for specialized high-performance sports.

How should I clean the mesh and suede materials?

For mesh, use a mild detergent with a soft brush or cloth. For suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and brush. Always air dry away from direct heat and avoid machine washing.

What type of cushioning technology is used in the 9060 model?

The New Balance 9060 features a dual-density midsole with ABZORB and SBS cushioning, providing superior shock absorption and comfort.

Is the sizing standard for children's shoes?

New Balance sizing can sometimes vary. We recommend referring to the official New Balance size chart and measuring your child's foot to ensure the best fit for UK 6.5.

What is the 'Translucent CR device' mentioned in the features?

The 'Translucent CR device' is an aesthetic design element located at the heel, contributing to the shoe's modern, tech-inspired appearance.

Are these shoes heavy due to their bulky design?

Despite their robust and supportive appearance, the New Balance 9060 is designed to feel sturdy yet lightweight, ensuring comfort for active children throughout the day.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lace tension. Ensure you're lacing from the bottom up, pulling each section taut but not overly tight. For a secure fit, double knot the laces.

The suede parts look dull or dirty.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, apply a suede cleaner as directed on the product, using a clean cloth or sponge, and then brush once dry to restore the nap.

The cushioning feels less responsive over time.

Over extended use, cushioning materials can compress. This is normal wear and tear. While ABZORB and SBS are durable, consider the shoes' age and usage. For optimal performance and support, footwear should be replaced periodically, especially for active children.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional comfort and support for growing feet due to ABZORB and SBS cushioning.
  • Durable construction with mesh and pigskin suede overlays designed for active kids.
  • Unique and bold Y2K-inspired design stands out aesthetically.
  • Provides stable footing with a heritage-inspired diamond outsole pattern.
  • Lightweight feel despite its robust and supportive design.

Cons

  • The bulky, exaggerated silhouette may not appeal to all style preferences.
  • Primarily available in specific colorways, limiting options.
  • While durable, suede material requires specific care to maintain appearance.
  • Not specifically designed for high-performance sports, more suited for general wear and play.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

The New Balance 9060 features a traditional lace closure for a secure and adjustable fit.

  1. Unlacing: Loosen laces fully before putting the shoe on to ensure easy entry for the foot.
  2. Inserting Foot: Guide the foot into the shoe, ensuring the heel sits comfortably against the back.
  3. Lacing: Begin tightening laces from the bottom eyelets, working your way up. Adjust tension evenly to achieve a snug, supportive fit without being too tight.
  4. Tying: Secure with a double knot for active use to prevent untying.

Compatibility

These shoes are designed for kids (grade school age group) and are unisex, making them suitable for all children. The UK 6.5 size typically fits older children or younger teenagers, depending on foot growth. They are ideal for everyday casual wear and light recreational activities.

Care

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your New Balance 9060 shoes:

  • Regular Cleaning: For daily dirt, gently wipe the mesh and suede with a soft, dry brush.
  • Spot Cleaning: For tougher marks, use a specialized suede cleaner for the pigskin suede sections and a mild detergent with a soft cloth for the mesh, being careful not to oversaturate the material. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can damage materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
  • Avoid Washing Machine: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can severely damage the shoe's structure and materials.
