FAQs

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

These shoes are specifically designed for kids, indicated by the (GS) in the product name for Grade School sizes.

How do I clean the suede and mesh materials on these shoes?

For mesh, use a soft brush with mild soap and water. For pigskin suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and brush, avoiding excessive water. Always air dry completely.

Are these shoes suitable for active sports like basketball or running?

While providing excellent cushioning and support for general active play and everyday wear, these shoes are primarily designed for casual and lifestyle use. For specialized sports, dedicated athletic footwear might offer more targeted performance features.

What makes the New Balance 9060 design unique?

The 9060 stands out with its Y2K-inspired, tech-futuristic aesthetic, featuring an exaggerated, bulky silhouette, prominent cushioning platforms (ABZORB and SBS), and unique details like the translucent CR device and 991-inspired tongue logo.

Are the New Balance 9060 (GS) comfortable for all-day wear?

Yes, thanks to the dual-density midsole with ABZORB and SBS cushioning, and the padded tongue and collar, these shoes are designed to provide significant comfort and support for all-day wear for active children.

Is the sizing true to size for children?

New Balance sizing is generally consistent. However, for children's shoes, it's always recommended to measure your child's foot and consult the New Balance size chart to ensure the best fit, as feet grow quickly.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose

Adjust the lace closure to find a comfortable and secure fit. If issues persist, double-check your child's current shoe size against the size chart, as foot sizes can change rapidly.

Suede looks dirty or scuffed

Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, apply a suede cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid using water directly on suede as it can leave marks.

Poor traction on certain surfaces

Ensure the diamond outsole pattern is clean and free of embedded debris. A dirty outsole can reduce grip. If the issue persists, consider the suitability of the shoe for the specific surface.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by friction between parts of the shoe or between the shoe and the insole. Try removing and re-inserting the insole. If the sound continues, ensure the shoe is fully dry if it has been exposed to moisture.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your New Balance 9060 (GS):

  • Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh sections, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water. For the pigskin suede overlays, it's recommended to use a specialized suede cleaner and brush to gently remove dirt and scuffs. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, as this can damage the suede. Always air dry away from direct heat.
  • Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Wipe the sculpted midsole and diamond outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and grime. A soft brush can help with stubborn areas on the outsole.
  • Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry completely at room temperature. Do not put them in a dryer or expose them to direct sunlight or heaters, which can damage materials.
  • Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
  • Avoiding Stains: Promptly address any spills or stains to prevent them from setting into the material, especially on the suede.
