FAQs
What is the main inspiration behind the New Balance 9060?
The 9060 is inspired by the refined style and innovation of the 99X series, reinterpreting classic elements with a Y2K-era, visible tech aesthetic.
What kind of cushioning does the 9060 use?
It utilizes New Balance's established ABZORB and SBS cushioning platforms for enhanced comfort and support.
How should I care for the suede on these trainers?
Care for suede by using a specialized brush for light dirt and a suede cleaner for stains. Avoid excessive water exposure and allow them to air dry naturally.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While they offer good cushioning for walking and casual wear, they are primarily designed as lifestyle and fashion trainers, not for high-impact running activities.
What does 'sway bars' refer to in the description?
Sway bars are design elements, inspired by the 990 model, that are expanded and integrated into the upper of the 9060 to create a sense of visible motion and stability.
What is the difference between the 99X series and the 9060?
The 9060 reinterprets elements from the classic 99X series but features a more pronounced, futuristic, and Y2K-inspired design with scaled-up proportions and visible tech details.
What sizes are available for the New Balance 9060?
The 9060 is available in a range of adult sizes. Specific sizes like UK 11.5 are available for this particular model.
Troubleshooting
Suede material looks dull or dirty
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner sparingly.
Laces become worn or dirty
Laces can be hand-washed with mild detergent and air-dried, or replaced with new laces of a similar length and style.
Uneven wear on the sole
This can sometimes indicate an improper gait. While the shoe is designed for comfort, significant uneven wear might warrant a professional gait analysis if experiencing discomfort.
Fit feels slightly different than expected
Allow a break-in period of a few wears, as the materials will adapt to your foot shape. Ensure laces are tied appropriately for a secure but not overly tight fit.
