FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the suede upper and compromise the glue integrity. Always hand-clean with appropriate materials.
Do these provide good arch support?
Yes, the combination of ABZORB and SBS cushioning systems provides a supportive platform suitable for all-day wear.
Is the 9060 true to size?
The 9060 generally follows standard sizing, but it is always recommended to refer to the UK size guide provided to ensure the best fit.
Can these be worn in rainy weather?
It is advised to avoid heavy rain as water can stain and stiffen the suede material. Consider using a suede-safe water repellent spray.
What is the inspiration behind the 9060 design?
The 9060 is inspired by the futuristic, visible tech aesthetic of the Y2K era combined with classic 99X design elements.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede upper
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft suede brush to gently lift dry dirt from the nap of the material.
Creasing at the toe box
This is a normal characteristic of suede and structured trainers; ensure proper storage with shoe trees to maintain shape.
Midsole scuffs
Clean the sculpted pod midsole with a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to restore the original finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 9060 trainers, avoid machine washing, as the suede material can be damaged by excessive water and heat. For daily maintenance, gently brush the suede with a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and surface debris. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators. Since they feature a standard trainer fit, they are compatible with most athletic socks, though it is recommended to ensure the child wears the correct size to prevent premature heel wear.
