FAQs

What is the main inspiration for the New Balance 9060 Grey Day (2023)?

The design is inspired by the futuristic trends of the Y2K era and incorporates elements from New Balance's iconic 99X series, particularly the 990's sway bars.

What materials are used in the New Balance 9060 Grey Day (2023)?

The sneaker features a mesh upper with suede overlays, a padded collar, TPU accents, flat cotton laces, and a durable rubber outsole.

How should I clean the suede parts of the shoe?

Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt and a specialized suede cleaner for stains. Avoid using water and opt for a damp cloth for light cleaning if necessary.

Are these shoes suitable for running or intense sports?

These sneakers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort and stability for walking, they are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.

What does 'Grey Day' refer to?

'Grey Day' is an annual celebration by New Balance that highlights their iconic grey colorways. This release is part of that tradition.

What is the sizing like for the New Balance 9060?

The sizing is generally consistent with other New Balance lifestyle models. It is recommended to check user reviews or consult a size guide for precise fitting.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers some protection, the suede and mesh upper is not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a dedicated suede cleaner and a soft brush. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner. Avoid using water directly on suede.

Laces feel loose.

Re-tie the laces using the TPU eyelets for a secure fit. Ensure they are tied firmly but not overly tight to avoid discomfort.

Reduced grip on slick surfaces.

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. For persistent issues on very slick surfaces, consider the limitations of the outsole pattern for extreme conditions.

Discomfort after initial wear.

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size and consider if the shoe's structure is compatible with your foot shape.
