FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 9060 Trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning for walking and everyday activities, they are not optimized for high-impact running or competitive athletics.
How do I clean the suede material on the trainers?
Gently brush away loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth, and always test on a small, hidden area first. Avoid excessive water.
What is the main inspiration behind the 9060 design?
The design is inspired by classic 99X models from New Balance, reinterpreted with a futuristic, Y2K-era aesthetic. It features elements like expanded sway bars and a sculpted pod midsole.
Can I wear these trainers if I have wide feet?
While the sizing is unisex, the fit can vary. If you typically require wide-fitting shoes, it is recommended to try them on in person or check specific reviews regarding width accommodation for this model.
What are ABZORB and SBS cushioning?
ABZORB is New Balance's proprietary foam technology that absorbs shock and disperses energy. SBS (Strobel Board System) refers to a cushioning system often used in athletic footwear for comfort and support.

Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight upon first wear
This is common with new suede and mesh trainers. Wear them for short periods initially and they should loosen up. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase.
Suede material looks dirty or stained
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, apply a small amount of suede cleaner with a clean cloth, following product instructions. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces become worn or frayed
Replace laces with new ones of a similar length and material. You can find replacement laces at most shoe stores or online retailers.
Discomfort in the arch area
Ensure you have the correct size. If discomfort persists, consider using aftermarket insoles or orthotics that provide additional arch support.
