How should I store my New Balance 9060s?

Info needed: Fit can vary by individual. Generally, New Balance shoes are known for consistent sizing, but we recommend checking specific sizing guides or trying them on if possible for the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks matted or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede. For deeper dirt, apply a suede cleaner with a soft cloth and follow product instructions.

Shoes develop an unpleasant odor

Remove the insoles and allow them to air out. You can also use a shoe deodorizer spray or place cedar shoe trees inside to absorb moisture and odor.

Laces become frayed or worn

Replace the laces with a new pair of similar length and style. New Balance offers replacement laces, or you can find universal sneaker laces at most shoe stores.

General dirt and grime on mesh/leather sections

Mix a small amount of mild soap with water. Use a soft brush or cloth to gently scrub the affected areas. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and air dry.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your New Balance 9060s:

  1. Spot Cleaning: For general dirt, use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap. Gently rub the affected areas.
  2. Suede Care: For suede sections, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For stains, apply a suede cleaner according to product instructions. Avoid excessive water on suede.
  3. Mesh and Leather: Wipe mesh with a damp cloth. For leather components, a gentle leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
  4. Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
