FAQs

What age group are these trainers intended for?

These trainers are designed for kids and youth, fitting the 'kids' age group.

What materials are the New Balance 9060 youth trainers made from?

The trainers utilize a combination of leather and nylon for the upper construction, ensuring both durability and style.

How do the ABZORB and SBS cushioning platforms enhance comfort?

ABZORB provides excellent shock absorption, while SBS cushioning offers stability and a comfortable feel, working together in the sculpted midsole for superior underfoot comfort.

Are these trainers suitable for sports activities?

While they offer good comfort and support for everyday wear and light play, they are primarily designed as lifestyle and fashion trainers rather than specialized performance athletic shoes.

How should I clean the grey and black colourway?

Clean with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. Laces should be washed separately. Always air dry.

What does the 'Y2K era' inspiration mean for the design?

It refers to a design aesthetic from the early 2000s, characterized by visible technology, bold lines, and a somewhat futuristic or experimental look, which is reflected in the warped proportions and design elements of the 9060.

Can these trainers be worn by both boys and girls?

Yes, the New Balance 9060 youth trainers are designed with a unisex appeal, suitable for any child regardless of gender.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure the laces are loosened before putting the shoes on, then retighten to a comfortable fit. Check that the correct size has been selected. Allow a short break-in period for the materials to adapt to the foot.

Difficulty lacing evenly

Start lacing from the bottom eyelets, ensuring each side is even before moving up. Adjust tension at each stage for a balanced fit.

Dirt accumulation on mesh or leather

Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn stains, a specialized shoe cleaner for leather and textile may be used sparingly, followed by a wipe-down with a clean damp cloth.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between components or friction. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. If the sound persists, try placing a small, dry powder (like talcum powder) inside the shoe, away from the footbed, to absorb moisture.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: For leather and nylon components, use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

  • Laces: Remove laces and wash separately by hand or in a laundry bag. Allow to air dry completely before re-inserting.
