FAQs

Are these trainers good for running marathons?

The 9060 features ABZORB and SBS cushioning suitable for everyday comfort and light jogging, but they are not specifically designed as high-performance running shoes for marathons. For serious running, consider specialized running models.

How do I clean the mesh parts of the trainers?

Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Ensure they air dry completely.

What is the main inspiration behind the 9060 design?

The design is inspired by classic 99X series models, reinterpreted with a futuristic, visible tech aesthetic reminiscent of the Y2K era.

Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash suede and mesh trainers. Hand washing with specific cleaners for suede and mesh is the preferred method to preserve the materials and shape.

Are the New Balance 9060 available in other colors?

While this guide focuses on the black and grey model, the New Balance 9060 series may be available in other colorways. Please check with authorized retailers for current availability.

What does 'sway bars' refer to in the description?

Sway bars are design elements taken from the 990 series that have been expanded in the 9060's upper to create a visual sense of motion and structural support.

How does the sizing compare to other New Balance shoes?

Sizing can vary slightly between New Balance models. It is always best to refer to the specific size chart for the 9060 series and measure your foot for the most accurate fit.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels off

Consult the New Balance sizing chart for the 9060 model and compare with your foot measurements. Different models can have slight variations.

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent marks, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.

Discomfort during initial wear

This is common with new footwear. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time as they break in.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with standard shoelaces of a similar length and material. New Balance offers replacement laces, or any athletic shoe store will have options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: The unisex design makes them compatible with a wide range of foot shapes and sizes. They are suitable for adults.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a slightly damp cloth or a specialized suede cleaner can be used. Avoid soaking the suede.
  2. Cleaning Mesh: Wipe with a damp cloth. Mild soap can be used for tougher spots, followed by a clean damp cloth to remove residue.
  3. Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with paper can help maintain shape during drying.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or box to protect from dust and damage.
